No the big springs should be the idle spring or the very otter spring from what I searched.

If I am right they do not come in a kit..

Angry update.....? still not 100%

THANKS GUYS FOR ALL THE TIME ON THE PHONE. I AM REALLY GLAD FOR THE TIME,TALK, & HELP

I got it in and the idle was to low to keep it running. I turned up the idle and it idles very smooth. I idled it for a little and rev the motor kinda quick and it will rev to about 2500 to 3000 and start missing. I said ah it is cold....no go.. I tried to rev it slowly and it will rev till about 3000 and do the same thing.

I wonder what is going on...

1.Maybe it is low on fuel
2.maybe I have to tighten the springs a little
3.maybe the 60lb springs will solve it but it starts only at 2500-3000 plus if I rev slow it will be fine till about 3000-3200

Anyone have any suggestions?
