I had forgotten about that. Been close to 20 years since I worked on one. I made a little hook tool that I used, I put another half wrap on the spring on the secondary shaft. I also tweaked the link on the driver's side to push the secondaries shut when the primaries closed. Most had a good bit of slack there. When the shaft bores in the base wore enough they didn't always close tight, I drilled the shaft bores out and installed brass bushings. A place in Kansas sold the bushings and tooling to do it.
