The spring is the reverse lever spring. It is a big spring and popped off and jumped up to block a gear from turning. When I push the lever down it auto springs back up when released. Without the spring I have to lift the lever back up when I push it down. A minor thing. I rarely use the reverse anyway as I use this machine mostly for machine quilting. It does not hinder the sewing at all.
It really was a tight spring to jump from the lever to the top of the machine. !
