Default Re: Failed valve spring retainer (cup washer)

This is a comparison of the two failed cup washers and the two originals. There is a very large difference in the thickness of the sheet stock they were made from as you can see in the picture. The thickness difference is so large fortunately, that it should be easy to detect the bad ones. The ones that failed lasted about a 1000 miles. Jim in San Jose
