    I believe there’s just a tiny washer and a piece of wire thru the rod, that positions the
    carburetor end of the spring. If I remember correctly, this setup is so that if you
    retard the magneto past the point where the throttle butterfly closes, the spring will
    compress instead of bending your butterfly.
