Carburetor Question: Anyone know where this spring goes?

[domdom]

I'm rebuilding Mikuni BS34s and when I turned the carb over this spring fell out. Any ideas?

 

[bcware]

Choke rod. Holds a tiny bearing into a notch. Your choke won't work without at least one of these in place; there are two. You probably lost the tiny bearing if that fell out.

 

[domdom]

OHHH!! It goes behind that little bearing then? That makes sense, because only one of these little springs fell out, and the other bearing is still in.

You only need one bearing...just don't lose that one.

You only need one bearing...just don't lose that one.

or you will lose your bearings
