Allow me to take a crack at its most basic level. By and large there are two types of failures:

1. Catastrophic (immediate)
2. Fatigue related (over time)

That's why many serious amateur racers swap springs (and other stuff) for every race and pro teams swap whole motors (frequently) as the fact the motor made it to the checkers doesn't guarantee it will do it again.

Regarding my suggestion for the OP to swap springs as cheap insurance, take a look at Nicky's thread on Track thread. Of course another strategy is to do nothing as power train is warranted. But if she blows it will be one heck of an inconvenience with towing, down time, likely some out of pocket costs, etc.

Anyhow, ive said enough here. Cheers!
