Lister D Internal Governor Springs

Good day,
I was wondering if you can tell the difference between a 700 rpm spring and a 1,000 ? Is it a different number of coils or different spring tension ? I was hoping it was as simple as counting the coils. Thanks Mike

Hi Mike
I/m sure they are different springs if you look on stationary engine parts they list both 700 & 1000 RPM separately Good luck with it

Thanks Tony, my fault I meant if you had two springs in front of you can you tell which one is which ?

No, not without measuring the tension of the spring with a gauge.

Thanks Villiers , I have a spare set and was wondering if they are different than what is in the engine now.Cheers Mike
