what do you do if the spring has already been cut and has come out?

Purchase a replacement from a local shop or if it is an Edwards, directly from us.

I would assume no longer than 5 mins and 23 seconds. Very quick job.

do u know how long it would take if i take it to a shop

Each company have their own style. Your local repair shop should be able to help you find the proper spring.

Springs like these are a good thing to have in your case, just in case.

Thank you, and also, does the spring differ from different models like edwards to shires, or conn to bach, or king to jupiter, etc. I own a Conn 88HT-O SL4747 and a King 2B+. And thank you for the answer. Really appreciate it.

Whenever your spring would break or your spit valve becomes leaky or really disgusting.

how often do you do this process?
