The other day you were looking for a chromatic spring.
There are a couple on ebay

http://tinyurl.com/6wehlwq
chromonica harmonicas replacement slide springs X 2. new

the seller also has some windsavers and nails and cover supports.



I have no connection with the seller that I am aware of so this is not a recommendation or their credentials, I just saw them listed.

Another DIY solution is to use a large safety pin. Just cut the sharp tip, and the other side off with wire cutters, and it's a perfect drop-in replacement. You may need to flex the coiled part a bit to make it large enough to fit of the spring mounting pin on the comb.

The late Chris M. showed me this, and said that the safety pins provide better button response. I've done this with my Educator 10, and can confirm that it does indeed enhance the button action on that model at least.
