Throttle Control Assembly

Postby kaleb58loboy » Fri Mar 29, 2019 9:09 am

Hello
Removed the thick paint from the throttle control,some of the teeth are gone,some paper thin,bolt hole elongated,just totally worn out,
the lever has a deep groove at the bottom end and seems to be a homemade lever.
Looking on line at the new throttle assemblies,which would be the best assembly to buy? Trying to avoid off shore import.

It looks like TM is out of the levers. Steiner has the whole quadrant and lever assembly.

I'm less than thrilled with the one I got from Steiner. It tends to pop back from high idle. I'm planning to look for a tougher spring for it.

I got mine from Steiner and had a similar problem, it wouldn't stay in the last tooth on high idle. I put more washers in to compress the spring for more tension. It worked, but I didn't like the increased lever tension resulting hard lever movement.

The best fix was to use a diamond wheel on a Dremel and cut the angle back on that last tooth so that the lever fits better in the tooth groove.

the teeth on the quadrant from steiner are cut at the wrong angle, they do not work, you can buy the quadrant from IH that works
