High Standard Sentinel Deluxe ??? Spring ??

I'm told my HS Sentinel Deluxe needs a new mainspring (?)--that is, the one that provides the tension for the hammer impact. Mine doesn't strike the bullet with enough force to cause ignition. Previously, I was told the hammer was bad--that it was worn and didn't go far enough, but a fellow confirmed today what I already thought--that the hammer was indeed okay but that it wasn't hitting the bullet hard enough. I've looked on the Mid-Way and Brownells sites but couldn't find anything listed. Can anyone of you experts help?
Many thanks in advance!!! [^]

I wrote to Wolff springs and gave them the wire diameter and spring diameter. They were able to match it up with a mainspring for one of the Ruger auto pistols. Cost was minimal, and all I had to do was shorten it a bit.
Good luck,
