Description

When your engine starts losing power or you hear that telltale ticking from the valve train, worn valve springs are often the culprit. These little coil springs work harder than you might think, cycling thousands of times per minute to keep your valves sealing properly and your engine running smooth. When they start to weaken or break, you’ll notice it right away in performance and fuel economy.

What You’re Getting

Includes both intake and exhaust valve springs – complete set for proper engine operation
Twelve springs per engine set ensures you have all the springs needed for a complete valve train refresh
Manufactured by TISCO to handle the constant cycling and stress of daily farm work
Direct replacement springs that maintain proper valve timing and sealing
Quality construction that restores engine compression and power output

Built for Real Farm Work

These valve springs are designed for International Harvester tractors that see real work – whether you’re running cultivation equipment, hay machinery, or pulling implements through tough field conditions. The engines these fit are typically 4-cylinder designs that power everything from utility tractors to row-crop machines, and proper valve spring tension is critical for maintaining engine performance under load.

Made to Last

Valve springs take tremendous abuse – they compress and release millions of times over their service life while dealing with high temperatures and engine vibration. TISCO builds these springs to handle those demanding conditions, using quality steel that maintains its spring rate and doesn’t fatigue prematurely like some cheaper alternatives.

Installation Notes

This is a complete engine job that requires removing the cylinder head and disassembling the valve train. If you’re doing the work yourself, you’ll need a valve spring compressor tool and it’s a good time to check valve clearances and condition. Many folks take this opportunity to freshen up other valve train components while everything’s apart.
