Default Anyone have a 951 throttle return spring?

Preferably in the chicago area? I'm doing a TB rebuild and just discovered the wildest thing -- my car hasn't had a throttle return spring (951 110 098 90) on it since I've owned it. The spring on the shaft was strong enough (and I guess the seals were weak enough) that the throttle was snapping shut just fine without the return spring. Yikes.

Need a new one by next week at the latest. Anyone have a spare hanging around? Thanks!

You can get suitable replacements at any well stocked ACE hardware.

Thats true, it doesn't have to be a factory part to work fine. Only reason I mentioned it is because my TB got broken in the wreck so this spring is just sitting here.
