Does the white spring cause the secondaries to open at the same time as the primarys?

I just got the spring kit for my carb and put in the short yellow (second lightest to the white) and it got rid of the long hesitation and gave it some more power.

Whats the white do?

They will never open at the same time as the primaries because airflow through the primaries is what develops the vacuum signal. Have you got the instructions?

yeah but notice the "white" spring doesn't list any rpm's for opening or fully open, which is why I assumed it meant near the same as the primaries, ill give them a shot.
