I’m trying to figure out what kind of spring this is… I’m not sure on the name of it… I tried the brand Help throttle return springs but they seemed to be too long for the space I have to work with… So I’m curious if there’s possibly another name for the spring or maybe I should try a different store? If it matters, it’s a 4.7L 289CI (in a 1964 Galaxie 500XL)

Any info/suggestions are greatly appreciated…

In the picture, I circled the two spots where the spring is going to be latching on to since it’s not an up close shot…
