Sprinter 3500 V6-3.0L DSL Turbo VIN 45 (2007)
1. Valve Guides height requirement.
2. Measurement A: 16.50 - 17.00 mm. Measurement B : 14.50 - 15.00 mm.
VALVE STEM-TO-GUIDE CLEARANCE MEASUREMENT
1. Measure and record internal diameter of valve guides. Valve guide internal diameter is 6.0 to 6.012 mm (0.2362 to 0.2366 in.).
2. Measure valve stems and record diameters. Intake valve stem diameter 5.952 to 5.97 mm (0.2343 to 0.2350 in). Exhaust valve stem diameter
5.942 to 5.96 mm (0.2339 to 0.2346 in).
3. Subtract diameter of valve stem from internal diameter of its respective valve guide to obtain valve stem clearance in valve guide. Clearance of
inlet valve stem in valve guide is 0.03 to 0.06 mm (.0011 to.0023 in). Clearance of exhaust valve stem in valve guide is 0.04 to 0.07 mm
(.0015 to.0027 in).
4. If valve stem clearance in valve guide exceeds tolerances, new valve guides must be installed.
