Thanks so much. I got it out OK. The new spring I have is the wrong one. I have to order one. The one I have comes off the coils to the left and I need one to the right.
Such is life, makes life interesting seems I just get one problem solved and another pops up. I did get the feed dogs replaced and the bobbin winder and most of the metal cleaned up. I will post a picture when I get it done.
