toying around with my 51 for the first time since november, i noticed that the tension spring in both wiper arms (the one that keeps the blade to the windshield) are rusted through and broken.
i am also missing the spring for the hood latch (that returns the release cable when pulled).
i assume i can get springs at a hardware store, but i emailed wiperman (that i found on a different post) about the wiper arm springs. the hood latch spring, i have no idea. SI has nothing that i could find.
if someone could get me measurements or pictures of the correct springs, that would help a lot! also, what kind of tension i should be looking for when getting one?
on a separate note, what should i use to lubricate the hood release cable? white lithium?
