Are you looking for a diagram of the idle spring, and the 2/3 other springs, shims, and pedastals, in the governor assembly?

i guess what i am wanting to know is if the outer spring only controls the idle and the center springs only control top RPM's...thanks if anyone can tell me or show me proof

The outer spring and shims control the idle, and they are called the idle springs. The inner springs do control the RPM.
