It's been a long time comming I suppose. The lever that the pedal pushes on has been tilting to the inboard until the throttle rod rests againts the floor board. Sometimes I'd attempt to bend it back, but most of the time I'd just del with the squeeking.
Well, there's no more squeek because the throttle lever of the pedal assemble broke off. I got the car home by bending he manual throttle lever just enough to catch the throttle cable end. I drove it by pulling back on the lever. Now, I need some ideas. I know that the six lever isn't so common. What's the changes of having this one welded up and reattached to the pin that goes into the pedal assembly? |

Your 914 is brazed (and they painted right over it)... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
There's usually two ways they break: 1. They rip (the stamped metal portion of the bell crank) down there by the rod or, 2. The brazing breaks loose. Hopefully the brazing has simply broken loose and it can be rebrazed. The brazing does break there... it usually takes about 30 years but it can break. |
