Just in time...


The part above is a "valve spring retainer". These fit over the end of the valve springs, essentially taking all the pressure of both spings at either the exhaust or inlet side. Mine are almost worn through; it should be 2.1 mm where it rubs against the spring and there is 0.8 mm left. Just imagine what would happen if it breaks!
