Thread: Staring at the 75 Diesel

I managed to run an electric plane over the pads of my first two fingers on my r/h and have it bandaged up, and so on light duties. I thought i would go stare at the Diesel and see if anyone had broken into the shed and done a full resto on it, but sadly.........

Can anyone tell me please the part no.s or names of the clamps holding the springs, and why the spring would have come away from the others like this? I’m struggling to find the part numbers in the book. It looks to me as though i may be missing a clamp? Also what i would call a u bolt on the right looks way to big to me. All comments gratefully received as usual.
cheers,

D
