Source for return spring(s)

I have a 350 with a qjet. I am trying to locate the proper throttle return spring(s) I do have the tang on the thermostat housing. Any ideas?

Orielys or any auto parts stores will have the double spring in the MOTORMITE / HELP section

Sounds simple enough though NAPA was clueless-zero help. Thank you.

Anyone got a Dorman/Motormite part number?

Re: Source for return spring(s)

should be right on the shelf in that doorman or similar section of all kinds of clips, odds n ends for cars in tiny packages.

If you want to save gas, I used a screen door spring once.

part throttle took effort, took a muel kick to get all 4 open
