You're welcome!

Speaking about this spring, does anybody know why MB decided not to use a sleeve when installing the spring into the tensioner? When the spring is compressed, it leans against the wall of the tensioner "barrel". This is what causes the spring rungs to wear out.

I suppose the same is true with a sleeve, if you think of the barrel as the sleeve. Any thoughts?
