[SEL] Engine problems

[Judge Tommy Turner]

Jim
    Another problem I've found with the Websters is with the springs.  
Over time they'll loose their ability to "snap" back.  I've had engines 
do as yours did and I've replaced the springs on the Webster with the 
same result, it solved the bad running problem.
