Mikes sell part number 48-5010 idle mixture screw without the spring. Does that mean that the spring is not needed?
I ask because I have springs in both my carbs but the right carb with the spring will only engage 2 threads/turns before bottoming out where the left carb goes about 5 threads/turns. Now, if I screw in the mixture screw in the right carb without using the spring I get 5 threads/turns instead of only 2.
Do I have a mis-matched set of BS-38's, do some use the spring and some don't, or does my right carb have a thread problem?
Thanks for any insight.
