Default truck wont start! help afc spring kit install

so i installed the afc spring kit and put in the lighter one installed it and it started up then read the directions then realized i forgot to adjust the bolt on the back so i took it all off again and pulled the stud back so it was just touching the nut on the diphram like the instructions said and tried starting it up n it wouldnt start so i took it off and srewed the stud about a half of turn in and no results do you guys think i gotta keep screwing it in or is there something i could have fucked up in the process? would that cause the truck not too start? thanks

The afc will have nothing to do with the truck starting or not starting. Check the shut off solenoid.

Im sorry, I may be wrong but that wasnt your problem. Either way the truck should have started, but since its started there is no sense in arguing.
