Title: accelerator linkage Post by: Brad on January 29, 2024, 09:37:21 PM Hi all
Just fitted the linkage to the firewall and the rod that goes from left to right seems to have a lot off play between the locating brackets. Is there a spring or something that fits to the end of the linkage rod to take up the play? I sort of remember that a small spring and washer was on the left hand side. my memory's not to good as it was 35 years ago when I unbolted it If not than I might put a couple of felt washers in there to compensate . Thanks again Brad. Title: Re: accelerator linkage Post by: Errol62 on January 29, 2024, 09:58:12 PM There is a factory spring Brad, on the drivers side from memory. I’m running a c@blend clutch so from memory.
