Rob, The spring that I am talking about is the upper weight spring. It is a long skinny spring that wraps around the centrifugal weights. In order to see it you have to have the bendix gear extended out in the engaged position. We work on alot of polaris's with this same type of bendix so I am very familiar with them and have a pretty clear understanding of how they work.
Like I said though, I was getting tired of mine not working and felt that I had nothing to loose. If you are not familiar with these type of bendix's I would advise you not to mess with it.
I will get on gofasters website today and see if that spring is available. I would atleast make sure a new spring is available before I took a chance on ruining the one thats already on there.
The assembly clip on the end is a pain to get off and I wouldn't advise taking it off. Its a one time clip and will not retain its shape when you go to reinstall it.
