If I read your posts correctly you say to move the spring clockwise which would tighten the coil up but when I look at this picture provided in the chevelle link you can see they actually loosened the coil counterclockwise. So what’s the correct way to move it ?
That was kinda my question too. The videos I posted both moved it to the left (CC) as well. But they may have been reverse spinning water pumps?

Im still slightly confused. I might take a picture later and draw on it just to clear up the confusion.

I think I might be afflicted by exactly what you guys are talking about. The fan coming fully on too late. My car sits dead on the 180 thermostat when moving, but climbs some when idling. So I would like to give this mod a shot, but Im still not sure where I should put the outter tang of the spring.

Im a visual person lol. Trying to visualize it in my head Im struggling with.
