Valve Springs Service

  1. Remove cylinder head, rocker arm assemblies and camshaft as previously described. Use valve spring compressor to compress valve springs. Remove retainer locks. Remove all retainers, springs, spring seats and valves. Keep components in proper order for reassembly.
  2. Check valve spring free length. Check installed height. Standard spring squareness measurement should be 2 degrees. If beyond 4 degrees, replace spring.
NOTE: Valve spring should be installed with enamel coated side toward valve spring retainer.
