2. Measure the free length of the spring. Place the spring on a flat horizontal surface and measure the deviation of the spring top from the vertical plane.
Free length of spring: 42.03 mm
Length of spring under 24.7 kg load: 34.5 mm
Maximum allowable spring deviation from vertical plane: 1.5° or less

Exhaust valves: 0.035–0.065 mm
