Valve springs can be small, but they play an important role in a motor voicing. These springs ensure that intake and exhaust valves are opened and closed at accurate intervals, and directly affect the engine's efficiency, strength and lifetime.
What are valve springs?
Valve springs are tightly wound coils designed to add pressure on the motor valve, ensuring that they are closed properly after the camshaft or lash can be pushed out properly. When the valves the springs are weak or unsuccessful, they can reduce the correct valve timing, cause errors fire and affect motor performance.
Work with valve springs
- Maintenance of the exact valve timing - Remember to open the valve in the sink with the open and the camshaft.
- Valve Float Prevention - Weak springs can cause valves float, where valves are unable to close properly at high turns, and cause misfire and electricity loss.
- Improvement in combustion efficiency springs that work in proper fuel burn increases the engine's performance.
- Defense of Valvetrain components - the engine reduces wear on life, wearing camshafts, weight lines, and valves.
Type of valve springs
Different types of valve springs meet different engine performance needs:
- Single springs - found in stock engine, provide sufficient force for normal driving.
- Dual Springs - used in performance engines to provide extra assistance in high turns.
- Bihiva Springs-Tapard design reduces the weight and improves the stability of high-demo applications.
- Pneumatic springs - used in extreme racing motor (eg Formula 1) replace the traditional coat of compressed gas for better control.
Choosing the right valve springs
When choosing valve springs, consider:
- Camping lift and duration - High lifting comb requires strong springs.
- Motor RPM area - high-speed engine requires stiffer springs to prevent valve flow.
Vehicle Application – The vehicle uses the type of our application, racing or height demonstrations.
Signs of wear or weak valve springs
- Rough ice cream
- Loss of electricity at high speed
- Excessive lubricant noise
- Unstable motor performance
Final thoughts
Valve springs are needed to maintain a good working engine. Whether you are glued to stock components or upgrading to high performance, you ensure the right spring's efficiency, reliability, and long life. Regular inspection and timely replacement will keep the engine running at the top performance level.
