914World.com _ 914World Garage _ ARGH! Missing ONE little part

Posted by: nebreitling Apr 6 2005, 06:12 PM

talking dual 44 IDFs with CBPerformance linkgage here...

i'm missing the throttle linkage arms (okay, so that's two parts). these are the little arms that sit on the end of the carb throttle shaft and connect to the heim joints.

i could probably make something that would work *okay*, but if any of you have these things on a set of carbs laying around, i would REALLY appreciate the chance to buy 'em off you...

i've checked the local bug shop, have torn through piles at HPH, and CBperformance is currently a week behind in shipping.

let me know if you've got em, thanks

Paul,HUGE thanks for you post and your PM!!

already tried bugformance in sunnyvale (nothing), but i'll call rich first thing in the morning and swing down there. if he's got three different versions in stock, i'm sure i can make something work.

thanks so much everyone for looking...

i cannot WAIT to fire this bitch up. she's hungry....
