overflow valve question

Hi, does anyone know how to reassemble the over flow valve (97 12 valve). I took it apart to clean it and when I 'carefully" tipped it over, it all came tumbling out. I have two washers, a tapered spring and a ball. My guess is ball first, washers, then spring with taper pointing away from ball???

thanks,

There is also a small washer that goes between the pointy bolt and spring. I lost that one when I was putting mine back together. Sorry, I forgot exactly how everything goes back together though.

Negative..

ball goes on the bottom, then the tapered washer wehre the little ball sits, then the two little washers, the spring, then the 13 mm top of the OFV...
