Not a Sixer myself, but just curious as to what the purpose was for providing a floor mounted throttle lever within inches of the gas pedal on the 914-6s?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

Its a mechanical extra set of linkage that goes to the carbs.
It pulls on the carb linkage and its purpose is to allow the owner to hold idle at say 1500 while they wait for the car to warm up. Once driving, you need to push it back down. Rich |
