Title: Replacement Springs Stuart Turner Twin Oscillator
Post by: DBS88 on May 31, 2020, 10:40:06 pm

Have just had a look for replacement springs for a Stuart Turner Twin Oscillator, three needed, the part number is 60074 and looks to be £7.35 each.


Has anyone replaced theirs? If so which springs did you use and where can I get them? Any ideas welcome, I believe they are made from phosphor bronze. Thank you

I have a vintage Bowman steam launch that came to me with the drive spring from engine to shaft.
I panicked a bit to be honest and asked the same question on another forum
The answer came back look eBay, there are several manufacturers that sell on there and they list  thousand of sprigs
