how to check for coil bind

[dropem]

Check you pushrods, a lot of times if it was coil bind the push rod will bent.
Have you gotten with Tommy yet about this.?

yeah i talked to him about it yesterday and he is ordering me some new spring because i think that i am floating the valve over 4500 rpm and manley just started making a dual spring which even he didnt know about there part #221436-16 there good up to .660 lift and only have 5 more pounds of seat pressure su i wont have to worry about the lifters. and none ofd the push rods are bent thats y i think that i am floating the valves


And does anyone know where i can get a spring changing tool because ill have to do this in the truck and also how big of a pain is it to change them in the truck

If you hook up an air line into the cylender through the spark plug then you should be able to remove the spring with a spring compressor from your local parts store, then you should be able to hold up the valves with the air and change the springs that way.

That is the only way that I know how to change them while the heads are still on the block. You might be able to get the springs off another way besides an spring compressor, but I have never tryed nor do I know of a way.

Good luck!

Valve float doesn't break rockers. You can borrow a spring compressor or request the home made one on this site. Make a search....it's been offered as a pass it around tool.
