    Graeme, See the attached photo for a good way to safety wire the exhaust springs. This is how the CSA Sport Cruiser boys do it.

So that it is easier to get the spring on, and easier for it to jump off. All my springs are put on the harder way with the spring end openings away from the lug. my 2 penny worth Richard Holder
