 Sourcing a spring for CV carb diaphragmI think I might have misplaced one of the springs that pushes the diaphragm in the carburetor back down. On account of I can't quite find it right now. Any particular site to order these from? Z1, cycle recycle, etcetera? I can't seem to find them, so if anyone has a recommendation or link that would be greatTags: None

 Note that they are not a "one size fits all" spring. 
 
 If you can give the diameter and the free length, it would help a lot.

 They are pretty big, I don't see how they or it could have gotten far. It's not like losing a fuel or air mixture spring. Keep looking or hire a neighborhood kid to crawl around and look for it.Originally posted by shwaz View PostI think I might have misplaced one of the springs that pushes the diaphragm in the carburetor back down.
