princess auto has big bags of assorted springs for cheap. I think they are only about $5. Mine has some nice stiff ones that seem reasonable for a single spring feeder.

These tweaks did make a difference. Though my heavy spring is actually
too strong. I can barely pry the extruder open to put filament in.
So now I also need to find a local place I can find varying lengths and
strengths of springs to try out.
Maybe I should also find a longer screw.
