Resolved-: Question: Can a return spring be added to the Carter Model N Carb ?

I bet a ball point pen spring slipped over the cable against the cable sheath & cable bend will be enough tension. The briggs springs were small & it dont take much tension.
 
The small spring (like on a ball point pen) has provided enough resistance to keep the "creep" on the throttle plate. Got the bike idling and running better than ever.

Thank you DieselTech... BTW, I also gave you credit on the CABE forum! :)

Lets try to refine that some more, IDK if it's necessary but maybe

Use a cable housing end cap so the spring seats in it,
Or use two cable housing caps Back to Back , spring in one and cable housing in the other
But it'll need to be soldered together

If you are Cheap like me🤣😂🤣 use black heat shrink. Great idea! I like it Wrench.
I just realized it probably wont work The cable cap won't fit over the Z bend in the wire
It would be a PITA to straighten out the Z bend then bend it back into a Z, but maybe not

IDK what the other end of the wire cable looks like so maybe it will slip right on

Wire is good for one bend... I learned the hard way!
