Changing Valve Springs Question/Help
I broke a spring on Cylinder 5. I thought I would change all the springs sinse they are due...
I bought a set of 918's.
Which way do they go back on? I'm guessing the narrower diameter end is on top. If so, then my retainers dont fit right. If its the other way, then the springs dont seat right on the head.
Do I need new retainers? I thought the 918's were direct replacements.
The springs I took off were the same diameter on both ends, so there was no issues.
