Scott - At the throttle end mine does have that barrel clap - but it is not secured with a regular screw. The set screw is a very small allen type screw. Mine seems to be the only Non-Metric fastener I have come across. 1.27 and 1.5 MM was too small and a 2 mm was too big. Turns out it was a standard .05 (I think I will have to verify that though because I am not remembering exactly). The 8mm bolt is at the front end of the bus and that attaches the cable to the pedal mechanism. Thanks, Jeff '85 GL (Gertie) '78 Bus (Melissa) Patty's Bus |
