Is This Right?

The teeth are meshed correctly, but the spring appears not to be hooked through the lower hole.

Thank you. I will correct that.

Check that the spring isn't stretched. Happens during rear cover removal.

Thank you very much. That was extremely important. That spring would have slipped off that antler the very first shift. Poof, no transmission.

The coils in the spring are all touching, so it seems not to be stretched.

Sorry for my ineptitude in posting to the site. I am a computer dunce.

Nice touch putting the white background behind the spring assy, makes the viewing MUCH better!

You are doing much better at posting than some people who have been here much longer.

Not necessarily.
This spring only does one simple job - to hold the teeth of the gearchange mechanism in contact with each other to prevent them fretting, vibrating and to keep the gearchange lever from having excessive wobble.
Even if that spring were completely missing you`d not notice any difference in the characteristics of the gearchange operation or transmission.

Thanks for that insight. The more advice I get, the more confident I am that I can do this.

Don’t be so hard on yourself, you’ll get better eventually. 😁
