Wico DB distributor

Can someone help with finding some parts for a WICO distributor? I need the two advance springs. It is a "DB" model and there is another model no. X30091E on it. The distributor came off a 1962 JD 2010 tractor. I bought it with a seized engine. So I haven't heard it run. When I took the distributor apart to clean, I noticed two different size springs, are these correct? Or should both springs be the same size? Any help is appreciated. I have read and enjoyed this forum for several years. Hardly ever post anything. Thanks

WICO is now Standard Magneto Sales out of Chicago, they have a store on eBay. To find it search there for WICO magneto manuals CD - you might need the CD to find your part numbers?

Usually springs are the same size but don't really have to be, I would bet that someone lost one and popped in something they found. Pretty cheap to buy two new ones I would think. They have XB manual but I didn't see DB, so you might want to just ask them a question thru eBay first?

thanks Lee B, I called Standard and they are looking for the springs, I think you are right about someone replaced one of the springs with whatever was handy. Hope to have two new ones real soon!
