More tension assembly photo/observations on 429
Amelia, to get the spring off and cleaned, you need to unscrew this tension stud. I did so by hand, with a piece of cloth between my fingers and the screw. Using pliers or a screwdriver is risky, for it is easy to damage the tension stud.

Take it off --slowly--, noting exactly the order of things. The spring fits over the end of the tension stud, and inside, between the spring and the tension stud, is a small washer. This photo shows that washer:

Finally, be aware that there is a pin inside this tension stud which is free to fall out. The next picture shows that pin as well:

Good luck re-re-doing yours! Let me know how it goes :-)
