MG MGB Technical - Source of MGB Clutch Master Spring on Portland OR?

Hey all,

I am having a hard time finding a source for a clutch master cylinder return spring for my 73 B. When I took it apart the spring broke like a twig. Moss nor a couple of suppliers in town have one, only the seal kits which I have already ordered. The only thing now is possibly a scrap yard with a used one but I have yet to see one around...or else spend the bucks and buy a new one..

Help..!

Victoria British.

Part # 12-3069

$3.95

(...I've found that the hardest thing to find for these
things - is the little plastic button that goes on the
tip of the spring)

Eric:

Try a local SAAB dealer. The spring was a stocking item for the clutch master cylinder in 99s and 900s. Failure of this spring in a similar master cylinder was a common problem with the SAAB.

KJ, I don't know too much about the SAAb models..What year of teh 99s and 900s would I be looking for? Thanks to you and Daniel in Advance..I thought that I was outta luck and had to order the complete cylinder.
