Hello and welcome to AK!

The springs are probably OK, they aren't very strong to begin with, the most common problem with all old changers is the lube dries out and the drive tires get hard.

The Micromatic uses two tires, one drives the table and the other runs the tone arm, this allows consistent change speed regardless of what speed record you are playing.

There was a guy rebuilding the wheels, don't know if he's still doing it since it's been 2 years since I did mine.
