The counterweight should be fully up (held by the coil spring tension) when the motor is cold, and down when the motor comes up to temp (as the coil expands).

The spring should just hold the counterweight in the full up position when cold, but no additional tension.

Also it should move freely. If it is still stiff, then keep spraying cause you want it too move freely. You could pull the exhaust pipe and give it a couple sprays from the inside if it doesnt get any looser.

I hope this helps.
