The Proper Installation and Maintenance of Valve Springs

 

  • First, double-check that your valve springs are correct for your application. DO NOT MODIFY THE SPRINGS IN ANY WAY TO FIT YOUR ENGINE.
  • Never place the valve springs in a vise, grip them with pliers, or strike them with a hammer, as this can damage the surface and cause the spring to fail.
  • Handle the springs as little as possible to avoid damage or dropping.
  • When separating double or triple springs, only use a durable plastic tool that won’t harm the shot-peened surface of the spring. Never use metal tools like a screwdriver.
  • The surface is the most critical part of the valve springs, so inspect them for any rust or corrosion that could affect durability.
  • Do not clean valve springs with acidic or evaporative cleaners, as this can cause rapid drying and promote rust formation, leading to catastrophic failure. Most valve springs are coated with a rust preventative, which should remain intact during assembly.
  • Wear gloves when handling the springs to avoid oils and acids from your hands causing corrosion.
  • Keep the springs oiled at all times. When installing them, use a valvetrain assembly spray to ease installation and improve spring life.
  • Use the proper tools, including a high-quality valve spring compressor, to minimize stress during installation.
  • To break in the newly installed valve springs, run the engine through one heat cycle at a maximum of 1,500-2,000 rpm until it warms up, then let the engine cool down.
