Beating a dead horse...

If the plungers WERE taking on such a charge of fuel at partial load that their travel WAS being limited by the leaf spring, the engine would NOT be at "steady state", holding at "40MPH". It would be accelerating at it's full horsepower capacity, otherwise known as WOT (Wide Open Throttle).
