Hyundai Genesis: Cylinder Head Assembly / Cylinder Head Repair procedures

Removal
   
Use fender covers to avoid damaging painted surfaces.
To avoid damaging the cylinder head, wait until the engine coolant temperature drops below normal temperature (20°C [68°F]) before removing it.
When handling a metal gasket, take care not to fold the gasket or damage the contact surface of the gasket.
To avoid damage, unplug the wiring connectors carefully while holding the connector portion.

Before installing the parts, apply fresh engine oil to all sliding and rotating surfaces.
Replace the valve stem seals with new ones.
1.
Install the valves.
(1)
Using the SST (09222-3C100), push in a new oil seal.
   
Do not reuse old valve stem seals.
Incorrect installation of the seal could result in oil leakage through the valve guides.
Assemble the valve stem seal so that it fully covers the surface of the head.

(2)
After applying engine oil to each end of the valves, install the valve, valve spring and spring retainer.
   
When installing the valve spring, place the enamel-coated part to face the valve spring retainer.
(3)
Using the SST (09222 - 3K000, 09222-3K100), compress the spring and install the retainer locks. After installing the valves, ensure that the retainer locks are correctly in place before releasing the valve spring compressor.

(4)
Lightly tap the end of each valve stem two or three times with a soft hammer or the wooden handle of a hammer to ensure proper seating of the valve and retainer lock.
2.
Install the mechanical lash adjusters (MLA).
Check that the MLA rotates smoothly by hand.

   
MLA can be reinstalled in its original position.
However, the valve lash clearances must be rechecked and adjusted accordingly before the cylinder head is installed onto the cylinder block.
Refer to General information in EM section for Valve Clearance checking and adjustment procedure.
3.
Install the LH/RH intake camshaft oil control valve (OCV) (A).

Tightening torque :
9.8 ~ 11.8 N.m (1.0 ~ 1.2 kgf.m, 7.2 ~ 8.7 lb-ft)

Install OCV with black colored connector into LH bank.
   
In case of dropping the OCV, do not reuse it.
Keep the OCV clean.
Do not hold the OCV sleeve during servicing.
When installing the OCV in the engine, do not move the engine while holding the OCV yoke.
Installation
LH Cylinder Head
