I'm just throwing a chummy together at present (an AE to be precise).
The throttle shaft I have appears to be too long. I'm happy with the layout at the pedal end, but the carb end seems to stick further out than necessary for it all to lign up.
Given I found a disintegrated Mazak carb in the box of bits I assume the car ran latterly with a sidedraft so the shaft may have been modified.
This is where I am. Can anyone please furnish me with a similar photo with the correct bits in the correct places?
It looks like all I need to do is undo the collar on the pedal end. Push the shaft further to the offside of the car. Redrill the collar in the revised position, saw off the end, and file for the pedal bolt at the correct angle of dangle. But a photo to confirm would be good!.
Many thanks in advance.
