Is my opti-spark broken? After making numerous useless attempts to get my new motor started, I pulled the opti and noticed that it did not spin in perfect circle, it spun in larger circles, much like a rotary engine. 
Is this normal?
I also noticed around the spline that the spring holding a rubber grommet on the shaft was not on correctly. I looked into the timing cover hole and saw a similar spring lodged in there as well.
Do I need a new opti? I can remove the spring with tweezers, but should I remove the cover as well to be sure of any other possible debris?
