Stuck throttle tonight on freeway!!

[rodneym]

mickmate,

The throttle stops you sent were great except for one thing, I just found out that I need an M8, not a 5/16-18!! All was good for one turn
So, the 2 stops are shipping back to ACE on Monday. I really appreciate the generosity.

FYI, my Shelby is from HiTech, SA.
Upon further inspection (flashlight...), I saw that my Kirkham had one. Why did I ever doubt them?

Look for them in mail, take note of the M8 for new Shelby's, and check the mail for the stops.
Thank you!

PS: I did this on the forum so people can take note not to force a 5/16-18 if it doesn't feel right.

PPS: The piece of linkage in question was welded at the bottom but the tightening broke it loose.

rodneym When we ran the Run and Gun a safety thing was 3 springs on the linkage. You where allowed the one on the carb but 2 where needed on the linkage. Maybe you might want to look into this. Problems like this happen again over time. Down side is your right foot gets a little more workout. Gald you and the car where not damaged. Underwear is a washing thing or throwout. Rick L.

I was thinking the same thing as Rick. Not nearly enough throttle springs on the carb!
