Things are progressing well...engine runs,carbs clean, fresh oil & filter, clutch is working and now adjusted.
It appears to me that the only thing closing the throttle is the return spring on each bank of carbs. When working the carbs from the engine bay everything is ok. Using the peddle ...not so good. Linkage pivot shaft on carb is cleaned and lubed...Pivot shaft on trans is cleaned and lubed.
Looking at the parts diagram...is the throttle cable 2 pieces? Do you have to remove the female end of the ball socket to get it out of the tube in the tunnel? I'm thinking there my be some crud in the tube/ tunnel. Any other springs that I might be missing?
Thanks for the positive comments and of course all the help
