Help! Need info about a focuser problem

I recently bought a VX80 (Vixen) scope from Orion that was a 2nd or clearance item. The focuser slips and doesn't mesh with the drawtube track. Opened the 4 screw panel and believe I am missing maybe a tension spring or something thereof that would push the rack and pinion against the track. Is there a spring or mechanism that should be there?
