Anyone know what this spring goes to?

has the world gone nuts?????

it is very simple.
loosen the bolt.
move the flywheel in its regular rotation a bit.
tighten the bolt.
adjustment is done.

yes Virginia it is that simple.

All these many threads and this is the one he picks to comment about.

Probably wrong, but I'd replace the broken spring FIRST.

Then adjust..

If you are good you might set the tension without the spring, but since they do not say how much tension to apply you would be guessing.

At least the OP does not have to worry about the belt being loose because the spring broke.
The bolt locks the tension .
just cannot readjust without the spring
