publication being incorrect.<\/h3>\n<p>During the cylinder head overhaul, we noticed that there was only one washer under each valve spring.<\/p>\n<p>Although this was how the engine arrived, we knew this was incorrect, but its easy to see why there was only one washer installed when looking at the technical guide.<\/p>\n<p>Image from the technical publication showing only one washer under each

to highlight that although there are technical publications instructing you how to complete the task, without in-depth knowledge these can sometimes lead to incorrectly built engines or
