Valve spring lower washer c20xe

[nova_saloon]

Hi need a valve spring lower washer for a c20xe 16v head, its a later head but i dont think that makes the slightest difference? i know its just a stupid washer and could probs go to vauxhall but they may want me to buy the whole set when i only need the one! or does any one know where i can get one from? But i will come pick it up or will pay for postage. I beg Please ! :thumb:

im confused what on you want ?

[djbrowney]

are you on about the cup the spring sits in ?

[nova_saloon]

yes

[nova_saloon]

just a little plate that sits at the bottom of the valve spring, like the one at the top holding the valve its self in just the other end as it is slightly different

take all your late ones out and buy some new ones from auto vaux from the early engine. the late ones are rubbish. once took and head apart with all 16 snapped :(

that no good is it! alrighty then cheers for the advice. Wonder what so diff about them :S

[djbrowney]

the early ones are a cup style and the late are a washer style, early ones are double the thickness of the late ones !
