Where can I obtain bell crank, throttle linkage cables, rods, etc for a 3.2 liter DME conversion car?
I used the James Patrick throttle linkage kit, which eliminates the bell crank, uses a much shorter cable, and routes the throttle cable in close proximity to the heat exchangers. It's a much simpler system, but the problem is that when you get caught in a traffic jam and sit around idling for a half hour or so the throttle cable fries for lack of cooling air flow and the car becomes undrivable. |
