diameter nozzles at the ends of the cylinder head with
their openings toward the center of the engine. Press
the nozzles flush to .0312" recessed below the surface
of the cylinder head.

Check to make sure the nozzles fit tight.
If necessary. use a wood plug or other suitable tool to
expand the nozzles, or tin the outside diameter with
solder to provide a tight fit. If solder is used, make sure
the orifices in the nozzles are not closed with solder.

After cleaning, dry the cylinder head with compressed
air.
5. Inspect the cam follower bores in the cylinder head
for scoring or wear. Light score marks may be cleaned
up with crocus cloth wet with fuel oil. Measure the bore
diameters with a telescope gage and micrometer and
record the readings. Measure the diameter of the cam
followers with a micrometer. Record and compare the
readings of the followers and bores to determine the
cam followers-to-bore clearances. The clearance must
not exceed .006" with used parts (refer to Page 10-2-
136 for specifications). If the bores are excessively
scored or worn, replace the cylinder head.
6. Check the water hole nozzles to be sure they are not
loose. If necessary, replace the nozzles as follows:
a. Remove the old nozzles.
b. Make sure the water inlet ports in the cylinder
head are clean and free of scale. The water
