Default Broken rockers or springs??

Any one ever crack or destroy a stock rocker arm? Trying to diagnose a bad back fire type popping noise and lack of alot of power. Also has any one ever cracked a crane dual spring? I get no codes its intermitant.

If you are pushing the springs to coil bind, you will likely break the rocker. There have been some failures of the Crane 832's but initial setup usually is a player in these failures.
