Can someone with a foot starter post some photos of how it goes? Mine broke at one end, no clue how but it did.

Thanks in advance

I can't tell you how to put one on, but I'll bet you can get a spring like that from the local hardware store or NAPA. Why wait and pay $15 for a $1 spring?

Make friends with google. Posting here and waiting may be fun (like ordering and waiting for parts), but a web search brings back pics, videos, and hits on here in .1 seconds.
