Depends if it is a 4 speed ot not. Smaller spring towards the rear of the carbs is for the kickdown.

Lots of guys put a smaller diameter but same length spring inside the other on the setup you have.

there is a throttle spring coming in from the front and a kickdown spring coming in from the back on automatics. the kickdown spring on makes sure the kickdown rod is in the forward position. it does nothing to the throttle lever.
a third skinny spring is sometimes added to the center of the front spring as a safety backup in case the first spring breaks
