that spring is supposed to "straddle" the peg that acutally works the splined throttle lever... if the spring popped off and you put the spring on upside down or dont have the peg inbetween the two "tangs" it may be causing a problem. i acually ground down the peg that the spring presses against so that the spring held onto the throttle peg much firmer as i was having a variation in idle speed due to slop...
