In the process of replacing the choke spring that goes on the choke adjustment bracket. Purchased the bracket from VPW but they did not have the spring. Does anybody know the specs on the spring (part #7351086). That will save me from buying the entire spring selection from Mcmaster Carr.
Thanks
Jim

I measured my old spring:
Compressed length of coil is .430" (this is NOT including the hooks)
Wire gauge is .015"
@25 coils
hook ends
distance from coil to end of hook is .225"
Std "music wire" spring.
You are welcome to my old one for an sample if you want. The one end is slighty sprung but it worked fine on my truck. Send me a p/m and I will give you my address to send a SASE.
