Clutch Pedal Spring?

Two nights ago I got in my car to drive home. When I engaged the clutch pedal I heard a ping and felt something hit my foot. Looked down and this spring(see Pic) was on the floor. Clutch is working fine. Anyone know what this is for, and what the name is?

That is your factory clutch pedal return spring.

I see also you have the Lingenfelter return spring installed. That is why your pedal is still working.

Even without a spring all together your pedal will work as expected.

That is just a pick I pulled from the LPE site when I was looking for the spring. I notice the clutch pedal feels fine. I will replace it just to be safe. At least now I know what I am looking for. Thanks!

No doubt replace it. It helps when you flush the fluid for sure. The gxp doesn't have a spring so when I flush mine I have to pull the pedal up the first few pumps.
