Most likely the thread in the crankcase is stripped. I think it unlikely there's a nut underneath. Getting the head & barrel off will only take half an hour or so.
Re the spitting back - I had a similar problem with my ES2 fitted with a monobloc and found that a richer slide cutaway (lower number) sorted it out, as the cutaway controls the mixture on transition between idle and the point that the needle jet takes over. The slide was kindly donated by someone on here but sadly I can't remember who.
