[V8] V8 Digest, Vol 68, Issue 2

C) the spring crumbled and the overspring fell out

While replacing my master the overspring fell out because the spring
crumbled into pieces.  I ended up reassembling the master/pedal before
getting a new assembly and had to install it later which was much more
difficult than had the master been out too.

I found that positioning the overspring on the pedal and than prying back
gave me the leverage to compress the spring and seat it on the other side.
FWIW the V8's overspring is NLA, but I used the part from the CQ/5000 of the
same year and it looks the same and seems to work the same.
