Good morning, hope everyone is having a good (if wet) week.

I've got a throttle linkage issue that I am trying to sort out and looking at PET I noticed there is a different part listed for 914/6 cars vs regular 914s.

Specifically the front Reverse Lever (914-423-260-00) is different on 6 cylinder cars and I am wondering if that part needs to be tracked down or if there is a workaround?

Thanks @Cairo94507 , appreciate the consideration.

In my case the arm is either bending or flexing and not translating into actual throttle movement. Not sure if the shop just put it together wrong, or if the throttle cable is binding resulting in excessive force at the gas pedal having to be used or maybe cable is too short?

Pedal cluster was rebuilt buy a super helpful and competent person here so leaving heavily towards the shop messing it up.

I have this vague idea those levers can bend or flex if a weld breaks, might be just confused on that however.

Thanks!
