So, I've noticed alot of movement in the plate that the accel cable and pedal rod attach to. I figured that it was bushings, but when I pulled the floorboard and cables, I noticed that the shaft for the plate seems OK, the plate is loose on the shaft. That's not right, is it? I haven't pulled the whole cluster yet. How does the plate attach to the shaft? Can it be tightened? The thottle cable gets hung up (stuck thottle (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif) ) under the floor board if I don't have alot of slack in it.
TIA, Eric |

Happen to have mine on the bench. Shaft goes through the plate. Shaft has a flat head on it which is tack welded to the plate. A bit ugly for factory work, so mine could have been repaired. Might have originally been a press fit.
I think you can remove the plate/shaft with cluster in place by removing the cotter pin. Probably not much harder to remove entire assembly, except you have to crawl under for the MC nuts. |
