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? |

Still no pics of the carnage as I haven't taked the time to remove the parts (except for the brokem part of the throttle).
I think after reading this thread and looking at Erics work, that I should just got for a complete cluster. The part that broke on my car isn't just that it came off the pin, but the upright piece itself snapped. I'll remove the assembly and have Rich take a look at it. If it can be repaired with welding for the time being then great, It'll give me time to save my pennies for a rebuilt cluster. If not, then the car will sit. Thanks to Rich for offering to help and to Eric for his service to the 914 community. |
