Default Broken valve spring and replaced chain tensioner pics

My far number four intake valve outer spring was broken - pictured here. Also swapped out the chain tensioner pads - the new ones did not have any groves at all - these parts are off a 1992 968 with 150k miles.

This is the thread I used with the tool picture for removing the valve spring and replacing it with the head in the car.

This thread was really helpful for replacing the chain tensioner pads

Josh, My S2 had 2 broken valve springs when torn down, the original owner let the belt go to long and broke. Bent 14 valves and the only 2 not bent had broke springs. How wierd is that.
