[GreenKeys] Tape Auto transmitter CREED 6S5

[Alf Fisher]

Pete,
It is the spring that is 'weaker' as you put it.
The part number is 1910/19A and they are colour coded on the square plate 
where the adjustment screw screws into.
I cant remember which is which but IIRC, it was green/yellow.
I'll check mine and let you know tomorrow - unless, of course, someone else 
has the definitive answer.

Alf
