did you measure each spring stud to .045 or.050? if anything my idel was too high and i had to turn it down. not sure what you mean by the trane in it or the clutch?

do you have the vernier calipers to get the proper measurment? kinda need that to be right on. i checked mine 3 different times just to make sure they were the same.

usually you do have to adjust the idle after the gov springs. n i think he means the transmission and clutch.
