ENGINE 3-31
VALVE SPRING
The force of the coil spring keeps the valve seat tight. Weak-
ened spring result in reduced engine power output, and often
account for the chattering noise coming from the valve mecha-
nism.
Check the valve springs for proper strength by measuring their
free length and also by the force required to compress them. If
the spring length is less than the service limit or if the force
required to compress the valve spring is not within specification,
replace both the inner and outer springs as a set.
