Title: Valve Springs
Post by: mudgee on March 03, 2008, 09:36:05 AM
Hi Guys

The shop manual gives specs for valve springs as, free length 2.211 in approx.
Does this measurement include the spring cap ?

Cheers  George

HI All

I,ts a grey motor I think the head is EJ. The springs with the caps on are the correct specs.

Thanks George

 George you can always shim the springs to get the right installed height if they are to low ......FC427.......
