Valve Springs:
•
Check that each spring is in sound condition, free
of any evidence of breakage or weakening. Remem-
ber, weakened valve springs can be the cause of
chaffer, not to mention the possibility of reducing
the power output due to gas leakage caused by
decreased seating pressure.
•
Spring Squareness:
Use a square and surface plate to check each
spring for squareness in terms of the clearance
between the end of valve spring and the square.
Valve springs found to exhibit a larger clearance
than the limit must be replaced.
