It actually pushes up into the middle, but you have to have it aligned correctly or the piston sits crooked in the smoke unit. I actually used a little glue dot (one of the kind that you put on paper packaging) from a Christmas gift to hold it in place when I replaced the smoke unit over top. Everything seems to be working fine now but I would still like a better spring if anyone comes across one.
