started with the carb linkage and worked my way forward. shot bushings for the cable pivot arm. sloopy and binding. no time to rebush/finish the assem before a week from friday. had a better bushed pedal assem on hand that has sume surface but good shaft bushings with little to none side slop. an oil eater soak, some brake cleaner, and a wire brush. i'll do a quick Mar-hyde treatment for the rust, arrest the small ammount under pedal base and rattle can it with some Zero-rust. i have a rebush kit for the one i took out and will rebuild it at a later date. i have a new cable, might as replace the old one while i'm in this deep. more pictures as i go along.

You've got carbs eh? So what does the carb end of the cable set up look like?
On mine (2.0l w/carbs) the cable runs to a stop that is much lower than the arm on the hex bar so it comes out of the cable casing at a bit of an angle, this has caused me to go through several cables (so I'm redesigning it this weekend when yet another new cable comes in). Might look at that end too. |
