Yeah Ross I thought of that after I sent it to Abe. I actually took another one apart and tried to make sure I didn't lose any coils. I've got a pretty decent hardware store close buy but either someone took their spring assortment or they no longer have one.
About 2" give or take Looks like 10 coils Not sure how to measure the wire gauge? About 1/2" OD
This info is worth exactly what you paid for it, so I'm not sure it will help you,
As far as measuring the wire gauge, in your picture, it looks like your wire diameter is approximately 1/16", so .063"
(calipers or micrometers would be more accurate)
14 gauge wire is .064",
15 gauge is .057"
AVF100 John,
I ordered a couple of packs (6@ two sizes) of McMaster-Carr springs that look to be very close. More to follow once I receive them and try to install them.
CrazyWheel,
I ordered 0.072 & 0.062 diameter wire springs.

Glad you found some.....they have quite the selection of goodies.
BJ, when you figure out what size spring is best be sure to, as I'm sure you will, post your findings. Then others with your problem knows what spring is correct.
so I'm not sure it will help you,
