I ordered the PRC dual spring kit along with the FMS F14. I was gone today and my dad put the springs on. He can't remember if all of the valve stem seals are the same. I know they all came in the same bag from Futral.

Does anyone know if the PRC Dual Spring kit comes with all exhaust (brown) valve stem seals or if it comes with 8 black (intake) and 8 brown???

I really do not feel like going through the trouble of removing all 16 springs to make sure everything is right. Although the Crane Tool is awesome from what he said. So it wouldn't be a huge deal, just a PITA.

Thanks

 

a friend of mine got the PRC kit and he had diff ones, one for intake, one for exhaust.

 

My PRC spring kit had 8 intake (black) and 8 exhaust (brown). Ordered it back in December.

 

theyre different. Ususally they're labled

 

Damn. Looks like the springs come back off. O well the Crane "Vinci" tool makes it pretty easy

 

I know they differ by color, brown and black. But the kit came with all 16 seals in one bag. Maybe I'll be lucky and they are all brown.

 

Smart move. Better safe than sorry. Good spring tool makes all the difference in the world!

 

I HIGHLY RECOMEND THE CRANE TOOL! It's 100 bucks but worth every penny. Two at a time makes it really quick. I just took a few springs off and the seals were all mixed up. Looks like all the springs have to come off.

Question: Do I need to buy new seals or will these be ok? They are new and the 4 that I have taken off so far look perfect.

 

All of the valve seals are the same color.In the past the seal manufacturer made them different colors,now they are the same.

 

i just use the kit and all of them were brown!!!!!!

 

From what I have heard, as long as they are all brown its ok. The brown seals are exhaust seals so they are designed to take more heat, therefor they will work fine on the intake also. But the opposite is not true, intake seals shouldn't be used on the exhaust.

My kit had all black seals?

 

All of the seals that come with the PRC kit is the exact same,they are a viton seal.At one time,they were all black,some time they have been mixed,and now they are all brown.
