Throttle Plate Torsion Springs

[CRXSi90]

So I noticed that the only torsion spring that appears to be doing anything is the heavier "main" spring on #3. The other springs only seem to be "along for the ride" and aren't contributing any force. The linkage between carbs constrains the motion so they all move properly, but it leaves me wondering why the springs are there at all...

Here is one (of 3) that isn't making contact.

Each spring should have some "preload" on them and not just be going along for the ride.

Thanks, that's kinda what I figured. I think I can get them hooked back in their proper place.

I wonder if they just "jumped off" or if the rack has been apart before. It seems like it would be hard for them to just jump off the hook there, so........

*edit:
There we go, all the springs are back in place! Definitely a lot more resistance now!
