Comp Cams Valve Spring Height Micrometer

Some auto engine parts are very costly to buy and to repair. So if you're going to tune up your engine by adjusting or getting new valve springs, you better get the Comp Cams Valve Spring Height Micrometer as well. This tool is used to determine the installed spring height, or the distance between the spring seat and the underside of the retainer when the spring is installed with its keepers. Spring height that's greater or less than the recommended measurement causes spring surge. If the spring height is less than the recommended spec, spring surge may cause excessive spring fatigue and eventually break the spring. And if the height is above the specs, it may cause valve floating, which may damage not only the valve but also the piston. This just shows how important spring height measurement is. Good thing, this Comp Cams tool is very easy to use. You only need to put it in place of the valve spring and extend it until it thrusts against the valve spring retainer and lock. The measurement you'll get determines whether you have to adjust the valve spring or replace it. But why use the Comp Cams Valve Spring Height Micrometer, you may ask. Well, first, you don't have to worry about this tool's accuracy, because it's carefully designed to do its function perfectly. And second, it's by far only the easiest–to–use spring height measurement tool available. So what are you waiting for?
