I finally figured out where the spring goes. Never noticed the grooves...one gear has a depression on the top and 2nd gear has a depression on the bottom...and I think the spring attaches both gears together. And yes...it's hard to get in the small space to attach the spring but I will give it a try! Thanks for the quick reply!
