      Having a hard time figuring out where the spring on the cam follower connects to. I have it hooked to cam follower ok but don’t see where the other end connects .Photos would help. Thanks Tim

        A 1956 model would be a QD-17, so not sure if you have a QD-17 or QD-18. The cam follower spring on my 1958 10hp hooks to the magneto support plate (the brass ring under the mag plate). Photo included here.

            Bob, I know this thread is many years old, but I wanted to say thank you.  Your photo above helped me solve my “where does that spring attach” question.  Very helpful.  Have a great week!

              Stewart – no problem, glad I could be of help.   I’ve certainly had lots of questions over the years that other members have answered for me.
