NOTE: Sonnax F-Tool kits designed to
service a specific bore require the VB-FIX,
a self-aligning valve body reaming fixture.
More information and instructions can be
found online at www.sonnax.com.

1. Disassembly
a. Remove OE retaining clip and spring and save for reuse.
b. Remove and discard OE valve.
2. Bore Reaming
Ream bore (for reaming instructions/reamer care, please visit www.sonnax.com). Sonnax
reaming tool kit F-104740-TL and VB-FIX are required for this operation.
NOTE: Valve body is low-profile and must be secured above the VB-FIX base plate in
order to establish alignment with the bore. Pressure plates stacked under valve body work
well for this purpose.
If pressure plates are used, the valve body securing clamp MUST be placed directly over the plate stack.
Clamping on an unsupported area of the valve body or over the bore to be reamed will cause distortion and
result in irreparable damage to valve body.
