Your battery probably does not have enough juice to turn that spring, that would be my first guess. You would need a sub-c cell battery pack at 9.6v to get it going .

I am defiantly putting my stock spring back in after my new tappet plate arrives. I would like to know what would cause a gun to half-cycle ( pull the piston back and then freeze up, then the motor whines, and electronics get hot ).

Thanks!
