Oh boy, now what have I done...

After insulating the garage door it no longer is neutrally bouyant. Dang nabit. Guess it takes some fancy dancy tool to adjust the spring, since there are a gazillion warning message about "the threat of injury or death" if the homeowner tries to adjust it.

Mr Aherron, I actually know how to do this, believe it or not. Back in 2003 my torsion spring broke. I got a replacement spring from Overhead Door in Hanover Air Park and a steel dowel from the hardware store which I cut in half. Anyway, all you need is a little more pre-load on the spring. I can loan you my dowels to make the adjustment.
