I think I've got a broke valve spring on the turbo side, i haven't pulled it yet but thats what I'm told, is this a common on the 6.5?

It is known to happen also the plastic rocker arm retainers are known to break and allow the push to come out of the lifter and cause a miss and or damage to the valve train. Good luck.

Yea, I had one retainer break on the passenger side and the rocker floated down the arm. Pushrod was laying on an angle when I pulled it apart but luckily no damage.
