Thanks for the write up John. You are right it's a great resource for all of us to have this info. I am wondering if you ran into any issues with the adjustment related to the throttle shaft being worn? That's the problem I have. If I lift up on the throttle shaft, the switch works great. In normal operation it's not consistent. If I let the throttle close quickly, it works fine. If I slowly ease off of it from barely open to closed, there is not enough momentum to nudge the switch closed.
