I began removed the two governor springs. I cut them at the rounded end for one and threaded the second.
Next i took pliers and slightly spread the wound ring on the governor spring and slide it onto the mounting location, then rotated it until it was seated.
Next I installed the second governor spring but spreading the ends with pliers and unwound then replaced with the new spring.
