Fixing a Hoover 14

[hooverkid]

Hi everyone, I recently got this model 14 and I'm trying to find a handle spring to keep the handle from falling over. I would imagine that the original part would be nearly impossible to find so would anyone know what i could use? I was thinking I might (heavy might) be able to use hoover part 38356014 (the part is shown in the link)Anyone have a better idea?

I *think* I have a spring in one of my parts bins. Email me.
