Here you go.

I don't see how it could have come loose though, it's crimped pretty well on the mounting post in the center of the spring. I hope yours didn't break. BTW, it's function is to keep the flap from slamming shut when it closes.

Thank Ron You are a great help . I did manage to drop the AFM asssembly while cleaning it up and the spring must have popped off at that time because mine hasn't been crimped on- as yours has Thanks Chris Smith
