You might consider using an SFORCE instead. You can tailor the SFORCE to act like your spring, but you can change the size of the SFORCE graphic...

Right click ont eh spring: "SPRING:Spring_1", then choose "info" in the pop-up menu. In the info window, click "Children". Now you see everything that belongs to teh spring damper element.
Now click on ".model_1.spring_1.spring_graphic". Then click "Modify". Now you get the dbox where you can change the geometry (I suppose that it is really the geometry and not the icon that you're after). The diameter is by default set to a parametrized expression that is 20% of the length of the spring.
