Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island		Can someone help me with this? I'm looking for the bi-metal spring to the right exhaust manifold butterfly. Is there any source for this? Has someone mounted a spring from another car/engine? What is the correct name for the spring in english?

Location: northern germany		wiz, i never had luck finding a correct heat riser bi metal spring but found out that carburetor choke springs are almost identical and work just as good. go to ebay and search for choke spring, choke housing, choke cover, cap, coil, etc. you will find one cheap.

Location: Southern Sweden - Sturkö island		Thank you Sid, I suspected this when I checked my catalouges, but now you have confirmed it! Maybe I'm able to repair the spring, since theres some parts rusted away.
