I have been reading on a couple of different forums that a few people have had problems with a spring breaking inside their SX3 Gas Valve. One guy said that , during the first 2 years of ownership , his SX3 gave no problems what so ever , but after that , he had to replace the Gas Valve spring 3 times in less than 6 months.
As my SX3 was only purchased about 1 year ago , and i have had no problems to date , i was just wondering if this spring breaking is a common fault with Winchester Gas Valves , or is it probably just one of a few isolated incidents. Also , any info on what could cause and prevent this possible problem will be greatly appreciated ,
