3200 gov spring only

Hi Folks
I will be installing the new spring in my pump soon and was wondering?
If I do nothing but install the spring, what if any, other adjustments will be needed.

You should'nt have to do any other adjustments yet.But after you feel the differnce, you will want to do the others.

Thank you
I read the tech post about this but didn't find or understand it to say there would be none. Thanks for clearing it up.

Just remember to mark all your settings before installing the spring. The throttle shaft index needs to be noted since that linkage has to come off to do the install. Also, the full power screw must be removed, or at least backed way out, to get the pump top back on, so in order to end up where you started, that setting will also have to be noted.

That would be a good time to remove the tamper resistant collar on the power screw, and dress up the threads.
