Hi Rich, ref your post about the choke I think you have the throttle cable attached to the choke, the one to the left you are looking for is for the throttle. I have attached a picture of mine but you have got me wondering now if mine is the wrong way round, it runs perfectly so I am convinced mine is correct, hopefully a lot more knowledgeable than me will have the answer

Alex, thank you - you have saved me a lot of head-scratching! You are right, I had put the throttle cable into the choke position

Now the problem I have is that the bracket on the manifold that supports the throttle cable and the one on the end of the butterfly spindle are missing....any close-up photos or dimensions would be great - thinking I might have to fabricate something....not short of time at the moment!....

Richard

Jokes aside, glad to see the yoga mat suggestion helped.

Don't forget to grind off the edges of 'channel' on the sunny side of the bodywork.

That way you can build up layers of fibreglass across the width of the join.

Good luck, Paul.
