i picked up a set of used springs and retainers. 2 things im wondering about...

1. does the inner spring clip into the retainer???
2. is the inner spring suposed to bing with the outer spring??

im wondering if the outer spring is skunk2 but the inner is not...... all the spring have a tanish color paint on the ends.

 

nobody has anything....huh

 

Take some pics. I know a person who can identify them by eye.

 

Yes and sometimes getting an answer to a question that isnt life threatening takes more than 6 hours.

 

Why are you using "used" parts. The most abused part in a 4 cycle engine is the valve spring.

 

they only have 5k on them. and they look good.

 

lol ya i know.

 

No doubt....Valve Springs are the LAST thing I'd buy USED.

 

True or False:

Most valve springs lose 10% of their tension in the first 10 minutes of run time.

 

Why do most used parts have ONLY 5000-10K Miles on them. LOL

 

good point lol.

 

I've had this old school HKS exhaust on my DA for years. It has over 240K miles on it and the HKS has been on it for over 100K. If I ever do sell it, you know damn well I'm gonna say, "Barely Used! Only been on car for about 6 months and 10K miles!" LOL.

 

ok well i guess nobody know the answer to my questions.....

 

If you get a pic, I can identify it.

Guess someone is too lazee to help themself.

It's just click click click, and there should be instant gratification.

 

Lol, they really quantifies everything you need to know.

 

im good there skunk2 springs and retainers. i dont have a camera worth taking pics with. i took the to a local shop had them tested. there skunk2 tuner springs with titanium retainers

 

True,
I've read some valve springs may loose as much as 15% during break in alone.

 

Most people cannot distinguish one valve spring from the next. I've heard stories of thuglicious scum bags installing $400 "Toda" valvesprings, but really installing ITR. But they sure look alright.

To my untrained eyeballz, dey look good.


Fo-shizzay!!
