If you suspect any kind of issue remove your valve covers and check for any damaged or broken springs.

If you have a broken spring, you'll be able to see it by just taking off the valve cover.

If you have double springs, you might have to take the springs off in order to see if any inner springs are bad. If you have beehive springs, then you should easily see any broken springs.
