I agree on the spell check. Kids ran off with my dictionary. Typing on my phone with old guy eyes don't help. Needle nose pliers and bandaids still work for me.
they have a tool that makes it easy to take spring on and off. You can buy them at any snowmobile place. You can also use a needle nose pliers. Thats what i use and it works fine.
Had a Snap-ON tool for years and lost it. Bought a tee handle one and it broke the hook off the first time I used it. Went and bought another Snap-On. If you break that one they replace it.
