Is your factory heat riser working on your exhaust?

I did a quick check yesterday. I plan to look closer today. Is the counterweight supposed to move down as the truck warms in the cold and runs in cold or warm weather? Mine is sitting parallel to the ground and would need to move up to open. I think I put it back together wrong after cleaning it up when we rebuilt the engine and reinstalled? if it is wrong is it closed all the time unless under a hard load?
