Default DLE 30 ignition cap

Its been awhile since I used a gas engine.
The DLE 30 gas engine I bought has a large spring in the cap.
Is that spring supposed to be forced over the hex on the CM-6 plug?

Doesn't anyone READ these forums ? Answered a few hundred times...NO it does not cover the hex...Doesn't even need to be there...
Toss it.....It's redundant ground in case the cap is loose...Not bloodly likely, usually takes a screwdrive to get the cap off...

OK so its answered a few hundred and one times.
No I don't usually read this forum as I have been flying electrics mostly for the last 4 years.
Thanks for your answer. I will now try to get that d***md cap on the plug.

Push hard, it goes all the way down over the hex....WD 40 or silicone spray helps..
