I tried this dual coaxial compression spring setup but it feels like crap and is really hard to push. The carroll smith books like a compression spring because if it breaks, you still have some spring action.
How do you guys rig your throttle return springs on IDF's? Also, does it help to lube the inside jacket of the throttle cable? thanks, dr Attached image(s)

QUOTE(synthesisdv @ Sep 15 2004, 03:22 PM) I tried this dual coaxial compression spring setup but it feels like crap and is really hard to push. How do you guys rig your throttle return springs on IDF's? dr My P-tech installed some small pull springs on the throttle shafts to the filter plate (already had coiled up springs on the carb shafts). I immediately removed them. WAY too much pedal effort. I like just one longish loose spring on the hex bar. Of course, when it comes to switchin'off the ignition, I'm pretty quick on the draw.
