Need help

Last week I heard a noise from underside of my truck from the bell housing. With a lamp i look to the two small holes and found a piece of metal. I pulled it out and it is a part of a broken spring.
The spring has a diameter of 32mm (about 1 1/3" ?? )


Did anybody know where it come from ? Is it from a torsion damper of the clutch disc or from the dual mass flywheel ?

It´s a 03 F250 PSD, manual trans, 6.0 diesel.
Now with 54k on it.

Thanks, Titus

Titus,

The clutch plate and pressure plates both have springs on them. Also the clutch release lever may have a tension spring to keep it from rattling. In any event, it sounds clutch related.

Hopefully it is only a return spring

I get the information that the clutch disc has no torsion springs, so I ordered a flywheel and a pressure plate with bearings and a release lever. I hope the parts coming this year.... Parts 412,31 and shipping 250 boahh.
Thank you for your help over the sea to southern germany.
