Does anyone know if there should be a spring or some type of clip or retainer on the needle the goes in the rotary valve where your gas flows in. The needle in mine just sits in there. I have the haynes book for the truck and it doesnt show one being there, but its also not a very good diagram. a friend of mine thought there should be one there. I went down to napa and got a rebuild kit for it, then i got home opened it up and realized the teenager gave me the wrong one. Its a rochester monojet model 7041014. Its on a 1970 250ci. Its not the original carb. Thanks for any help.
