Look in the manual, parts cataloug or using KNOWN NOS parts determine the spring specification. It will give the specs in LENGTH and/or tension pressure and service limit range.

On the next engine use tha t criteria. IF NEW REPLACEMENT SPRINGS are used CHECK the new springs against the criteria.

If the NEW springs are TOO long or to STIFF then that is just as much a potential problem, actualy worse, than springs that are too short or too weak.
