Calculating the Grinding Depth
Measuring the Valve Depth

Install the valves in their designated location and mea-
sure the valve depth.
There are two valve seat parameters that are critical to the
valve grinding process. The first is to comply with the
valve depth limits and the second is to not grind through
the hardened layer of the valve seat by observing the
grind depth limit. If either of these parameters are out of
specification, refer to the ``Alternative Repair Manual,''
Bulletin No. 3810234.
