If lower load springs are used on either valve, an imbalance on the bridge will result. The bridge will exert a load that bends the stem. The bridge will exert a load that may cause a failure on the stem at the keeper groove.Use the same springs on both valves under a common bridge.The retainer locks for the valves have recently changed in appearance.
