Subject: Re: Broken valve spring, again... Why? by Dale1990 on 2010/4/12 15:09:54 I don't know much about this stuff so please forgive the questions. If I get the pressure tester, what is that going to tell me about why I'm breaking springs? I can see using the micrometer to get the installed height then subtracting the total lift and see if I still have >.060 left. How do I get the total lift? Do I hope the cam card the previous owner gave me is right and use the lift * 1.6? Would I be better off just rotating the engine and use a feeler gauge to check the clearance between the coils on an intake and exhaust spring? Sorry for the questions - I'm just trying to wrap my head around what I'm trying to do. |
