What you found is what I would call "generic" information. It applies broadly to the K Jetronic line. Unfortunatly these things were offered in various "flavors" or versions. I do not think on the particular version we have in our Deloreans you should be bending any springs. BTW adjusting that nut does "bend" the spring a little. That is if everything is assembled correctly. If you cannot get the plate to the proper rest position if you send it out to someone they can probably get it to work for a minimal expense. It certainly will not operate properly as it appears in the picture. The air will get around it and it cannot meter the air and fuel properly.
