Yes, that is correct.  And thanks to ALL for their help.  Just finished
re-keying a cylinder for my sliding door, and got the spring in correctly.
cylinder still "drags" a bit (is tight) but it does work.  I have cleaned it
all, but just the cylinder itself seems to drag some, even with
lubrication.  Still, should work fine and maybe loosen up later.

Will install first chance I get, and re-work seals, etc. for the handle.
