Hi All;
I FOUND the Problem, The Spring was Broken.!!!!!!!!!!!! Does Anyone have  An Extra Spring to Sell ?
THANK YOU Marty

You can try bending the end of the remaining spring into the shape that the broken off part had, and wind up with a workable spring that way.

Hi All;
THANK YOU All for you suggestions and for the help and support.. I have decided to send Both of my #5 and #6 Dials to Steve for Repar and Adjustment.. I am thinking that if the Spring is Brokem, what else might not be correct as well.... This way they Both would be done right and correctly and ready to go... And I have had trouble getting the #5 Dial back together correctly, not enough pictures , of both back and front of the Dial, for me to get everything right and I should have taken some pictures while I was taking it apart, myself... I'll know better next time..
THANK YOu Marty
