Yes those can be a problem since to my knowledge they are not available as replacements.Consequently, they are made by stretching a pair of throttle return springs to the proper length and installing them.Stretch them too much and they will not work. WHEN STRETCHED TOO LITTLE THEY WILL ALMOST BREAK YOUR ARM PULLING THE CHOKE OUT.---Keoke- :laugh:
