Question TB spring

TB spring, so put in the new roller pin bearings and finally got the big spring on. The plate closes but it really takes a lot of effort to open to full throttle. I really did not notice how hard it was when I dismantled it. So are they hard to get to full open? No binding that I can see.



All together, looks right but a lot of spring tension.

It doesn't look to me like it is hooked in the right place. Maybe unwind it a part turn and hook it at the other bar like the other spring.

Well I see what noted, really takes some work but got it like one of the photos, still takes a lot to open. Can not make it loser.


Still takes a lot to open butterfly.

We dont know what 'a lot' means in a still image.

Like..you struggle to open it?
How are you doing it?

Well when using the arm that the wire attaches to I am surprised how strong the spring is. Getting the large spring in place took a lot of force.
