Recoil starter spring

What is the best way to lube the spring on a 2 hp 3 hp briggs?

I have the spring clean, but not the housing. I will clean it and

install the spring and rope. I believe these take about 6 turns.

I heard somewhere that auto-trans fluid worked ok.

Should it be a spray type lube or just some oil?

Thanks.
