Valve - Spring Squareness
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Mercury Sable and 2002 Ford Taurus. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Measure the out-of-square on each valve spring.
- Turn the valve spring and observe the space between the top of the valve spring and the square. Install a new valve spring if out of square.
