My cam feeler spring has come unhooked, and I don't really see how I would go about re-hooking it. It's still in the right place, and I don't think it's broken. I just don't see how I'd get the non-feeler end wrapped through to the other side and hooked on the bracket. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.

Yeah, I have that. It doesn't say anything about how to actually rehook it.

I was able to figure out how to get it through without any further dismantling. I pushed the end of the spring through with a dental hook, and then grabbed it with a pair of foreceps, and then looped it around.
