Exactly what is broken? There are 3 spring fingers on each side, if 
1 or 3 is broken then it may still work fine, if 2 is broken then I 
would look into mocking up a replacement that was just bent into 
an appropriate shape and placed in position. I THINK that might be 
possible.

The float can be removed to work on it by lifting the wire off the 
crossbar (working from the side that is spring loaded) and then 
removing the crossbar.
