That is amazing! What o'clock position was your tang? I tried picking it with a screwdriver similar to the one in your pic and the tang just keeps popping off. I must be a real klutz!

So you have taken the spring off and put it back it with the motor still in the car? How about doing it again but shoot a video this time? It will be useful to show the correct technique many have struggled with.
