Is yours like this?  See where the leg hooks in carb body.

I just grabbed this pic of net, so hope it works.

No it doesn't look exactly like that one. has a really shiny top. have not pulled the carb cause the saw runs just trying to get the throttle linkage hooked up. Thanks a bunch. On that diagram link looks like that spring is not avail. wow new carb shows to be $89.00 . ill study it some more. maybe i can figger it out.
