Sears Spring Parts

The Suspension Spring is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washing machines. It is a critical component that helps to support and stabilize the outer tub during the wash and spin cycles, absorbing vibrations and minimizing excessive movement.  

Symptoms of a bad suspension spring include:

• Excessive shaking or vibrating during the wash or spin cycle
• Loud banging or rattling noises from the washer
• The washer moving or "walking" across the floor during operation
• Leaks or potential damage to other components due to increased stress and movement

Causes of suspension spring failure can range from general wear and tear over time and exposure to high-speed spinning, to physical damage from overloading or unbalanced loads.

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

Symptoms of a bad Idler Arm Spring include:

• Unusual noises, such as squeaking or squealing 
• The dryer drum may not rotate smoothly or may stop turning altogether  
• Clothes take longer to dry, or you may notice uneven drying

Symptoms of a bad natural gas spring include:

• Inconsistent or weak burner flames

• Helps the door open and close with controlled movement and stay in position
• Symptoms of failure can include a door that drops quickly, feels heavy, or won't stay put
• May also cause popping/squeaking noises or uneven action on one side of the door

• Disconnect electrical power and turn off the water supply before servicing

This is a simple extension spring with an outside diameter of 0.38 and a slack length of 2.5. It is primarily used as an extension spring for snowblowers, but may be compatible with other lawn equipment. It’s designed to apply tension as the throttle is applied. The more gas there is, the more resistance will be present. Under most circumstances, replacement is easy. When the spring breaks or gets rusty, look at both points of attachment. Memorize where it’s attached, or take a picture, and remove the old spring using a pair of pliers if necessary. Install the new spring and the tool is ready to use. This is an OEM part sourced directly from MTD, and it is sold individually. It’s black in color and was initially designed for Troy-Bilt lawnmowers. However, because this is a versatile part, it has since been repurposed for a number of MTD and related machines in other brands. These include lawn tractors and snowblowers, as well as lawnmowers, in brands such as Ryobi, Yard Machines, Husky, and Cub Cadet.

This genuine OEM replacement part is an extension spring for a Craftsman snowblower idler pulley assembly. The idler pulley attaches to a part of the snowblower's housing and is helps to transfer energy throughout the belt drive. This extension spring helps to redistribute some of the back-and-forth motion created in the pulley as the snowblower runs. This keeps the assembly from shifting out of place and potentially slipping. This extension spring is attached at two points and, if pulled in both directions too far, can eventually lose some of its tension. When this happens, the idler assembly can begin to shake and even slip out of place. Replacing the extension spring is an easy job that will only require a socket wrench to remove the idler pulley. A pair of pliers may help to remove the spring from its clips. This part is only compatible with Craftsman snowblowers and is sourced from its original manufacturer. It ships individually and any additional parts needed will have to be purchased separately.

This is a genuine throttle return spring used on select small engines. The throttle return spring is part of the throttle system. It is attached to the throttle cable and the throttle body or carburetor, and is responsible for pushing the throttle closed when the gas is released and opening the throttle when the throttle trigger is engaged. If the spring is faulty, the throttle will not be able to open and close properly. This can affect the machine's ability to operate and even prevent it from operating at all if the throttle remains closed and no power can get through. A replacement should be done as soon as possible to prevent further damage to the engine. This genuine OEM throttle return spring is manufactured by Tecumseh, and compatible with machines from Toro, Husqvarna, MTD, Lawn Boy, and Tecumseh. There are over 150 models that can use this replacement part. It is made of durable metal and sold as an individual part. This throttle return spring is a simple replacement that should only take a few minutes. Be sure to use care when replacing the spring because it can be susceptible to damage under excessive pressure or strain.
