I wish I could reconcile that a spring that small in diameter (to fit through the small hole) and the photo of the spring next to the spacer, and the size of the balls. The spring looks about twice the diameter of that smaller hole. If it sticks in gear, I'll open it up and replace the spring. But I wonder why the spring in the photo is broken. There isn't any force from the movement those balls that would do it. Maybe just old? Maybe wouldn't come out (like I couldn't get it in) so it was pulled out and cut? Just guessing now. I obviously don't get it. Thanks for being patient, Brian.
