Throtle valve shaft modification

[RonW]

Carburettor throtle valve shaft wants by sand often go badly to turn.
This problem occurs much to the control side of the carb, not on the side of the spring.
The throtle valve go continues to hang, and is no longer in the neutral position.
If the damage to the shaft has been done, you can continue cleaning this throtle valve shaft.
The sand is so back again.


This is my solution for this problem.
There will be more solutions ,,,,,,,,

I have made a small bush from nylon with a recess for the O-ring.
The bush is just free of carburettor, and is precisely tailored from the O-ring to the carburettor lever.
The o-ring remains nicely into his place.
So you have no longer problems with sand between the valve shaft again.

There are already many brands of cars ride around with this small bush.
As HPI Baja, FG, Elcon Cleon, Carson and Hörmann.

I've already done this at a forum in the Netherlands.
There are already 50 cars riding around, and are very happy.
If I can sell at least 30, I would start production again.

price is € 7.50 each including an O-ring and exclusive sending!

modefication

Then we must wait for more buyers!
If I can sell at least 30, than I would start a production again!
It is otherwise not to do, for make some copies.
I see it as there are more multiple buyers want such a solution.
