hi lads n lasses!

quick question, is there a better aftermarket throttle linkage (the plastic bit that the throttle rod slides through on the end that attaches to servo arm). Because the stock one seems very flimsy and if i tighten it too much to the servo arm it locks up causing throttle to stick! Im having to use 2x nuts at mo, but would much rather a more reliable/strong and simple setup for it, Any ideas? TIA 👍
 
its not the ser4vo horn thats the prob, its the plastic part of the throttle linkage that the throttle rod passes through.
ok think ive fixed it, it was because i had it fixed UNDER the servo arm, i did it this way because of clearance issues with the pipe but because of the angle of the rod it was sticking, as soon i fit it above the servo horn, no issues as the rod is level, but the collet for the return spring hits the pipe, any suggestions? is this spring really needed? guess i could use some fuel tubing right after the spring then put the collet at the end of that?

Flip it over the other way gains a bit of clearance. I don't think it should interfere with anything.

i moved it over to the next hole in the servo horn, i was thinking this before but i thought there would be much less throw if i moved it so didnt try until now, but as it happens its exactly the same throw with lots of clearance now! so its all good :)

Cheers!

Hard to see from the video but I assume the linkage allows the carb to go full throttle? Looks good but I'm not a fan of how close it is to pulling the linkage out of a linear motion.
