Accelerator spring return

Post by Tim M »

Hi

I know others have posted before about this but I cannot see where to attach my spring return for the accelerator. I have attached it the exhaust manifold collar but it doesn't work and probably not a good idea. My car is a '67 saloon and doesn't seem to have a bracket to attach it to.

Any ideas?

Or where can you get hold of a bracket thingy to attach it to.

Many thanks,

Tim

Hi there

It sounds like you are missing this

It goes on to the front bolt off the exhaust clamp before the nut.

For what it is and what it will cost I would make one yourself. It's only a bit of 1mm sheet steel. :D
