As promised, some photos of throttle spring arrangements.
The first is for the SU on my Trials Car. In this case, the spring goes between a tag attached to the throttle arm and a second tag on an exhaust clamp around one of the manifold pipes. Difficult to get a good photo but I'm sure you'll get the idea.
This is a similar arrangement on the SU to my Ulster. Can't show it on the car because it's currently not on it. However, you can see the tag clearly. The other end hooks onto a tag on the four branch.
The final one is to the updraught Zenith on my SWB Saloon. Again, a tag on the trottle arm this time connecting to a second tag fitted behind a manifold nut.
The throttle arm arrangements on the SUs are very similar to that on a side draught Zenith so I hope you get the idea. Similarly, the Manifold on the Ruby is similar to that on my SWB Saloon so, again, you should get the idea.
All have been scrutineered successfully many, many times.
