Torque / Contra spring colors

[steffen707]

Okay I have some clutch springs and I don't know what they are, I have a blue, yellow, red and purple.

Looking on ebay from where I bought them it appears that most sellers have 1000rpm blue, 1500rpm yellow, and 2000rpm red.

However, I have no idea what the purple would be then. I might have gotten it with the kymco zx clutch I bought from kymcopartsonline, but I don't know. Anybody else seen a purple one?

Can I just put a weight on it and compare how much it compresses the spring, compared to the blue, yellow, and red springs?

ive never seen a purple contra spring

you can test it with a spring rate compressor or with weights.

There you go, PURPLE. NO idea where i got it from however, i think ebay.

I don't have a spring rate compressor, but i'll try the weight thing and then measure the height of each compressed spring.

Just mic the coil diameter. The stiffness is mostly in the thickness of the wire - See Polini Springs from Flash 6 thread somewhere.

Squeese the springs in your hands, cheap ones will heat fade but can used in other engines. I use quality daytona springs.
