Thanks Jim. This spring is light weight compared to the seat springs and it has a cloth covering like the rod from the inside door handle to the latch. I would say it would be to keep a slight tension on some part?

It attaches to the door control & then there is a small hole. It's inside the door, not behind the door panel. I tried to look for a picture when I did my car but didn't have anything...Joe

Thanks Joe. I found a picture of the one original door, and when I zoomed in I could see the spring installed. Not sure why Chevy would have added that small spring when there is a large spring on the release handle.
