Hey all, Just wrapping up the restoration of 11114. One problem I haven't spent much time on yet is a sticky throttle. If you drive gently and slowly let off the gas with the clutch in, such as when coasting to a stop, most of the time the throttle gets stuck at around 1300 rpm. If you tap the gas it drops back down to idle. I've had it stuck, then I get out, open the engine bay, and the spool is about 3 mm away from the stop. I can then barely turn the throttle back to the stop and it idles fine.
I have slackened the throttle cable so i know that's not hanging up. I have totally disassembled the spool and cleaned and greased it. Greased the linkage ends. Turned the return spring to the tighter notch. Anyone know what the problem is? I'm sure I'll figure it out when I look at it again tonight but just thought I'd throw the question out there in case the solution is not so obvious.
