<VV> Float Helper Spring Used with Ball Inlet Valve?

[Mark Edmonds]

I would not run them without the springs.  When I first got my car going I
did not know anything about those springs and did not have them.  For most
normal driving it ran OK, but sometimes stumbled on a rough road or taking a
corner hard.  On the autocross course it flooded so badly it would not stay
running - even after I rotated the carbs.  Finally when I learned about the
springs I put them on and it fixed the problem.  I later put ball inlet
valves in the carbs but I do not think that has anything to do with the need
for the springs. (my opinion)

I've got a pair of carbs apart. Both have the ball-in-a-cage inlet valves  
(instead of the stock needle & seat). One has the float helper spring, the  
other does not. Is the helper spring used with the upgraded ball-style inlet

valve.
 
Thanks,
