(c) Measure valve spring free length.  Free length of valve spring should be 2.125 in. (54.4 mm).  Replace valve spring if not within specifications. (d) Test valve spring tension with spring compression tester (DO1168AA).  Replace valve spring if not within specifications. 1 At 1.81 in. (46.0 mm) height, valve spring tension should be 54 - 62 lb-force (240 - 280 N). 2 At 1.36 in. (34.5 mm) height, valve spring tension should be 133 - 153 lb-force (590 - 680 N). (2) Inspect valve rotators to insure that valve rotators turn freely in both directions.  Replace if defective.
