Air throttle help needed ASAP

Cary and Don,

Was the spring you replaced on the inside of the throttle control? I'm going to call about the part soon as Oregon wakes up.

FWIW some of the control cylinders are idle and open no in between no matter what you do only takes 5 lbs to open and close,Paul's photo is the right setup for a DD but other setups will work

[Cary and Don]

The spring goes in the control that sits on the governor.  Unless you can get the numbers off the throttle pedal you will have to assume they have that right.

We used a regulator to lower the air pressure.  There had been a lot of talk here about 120lbs of air pressure being hard on the air throttles.  It seems we set it a 65 or 75 lbs.

Hey Richard, what's the status on this? Offer still stands to be the middleman for parts if needed but..... ?

[rdbishop]

OK Paul, I'm waiting for clifford to let me know where to pick up the parts from him. He's going back to Killeen after Houston...About 100 miles from me so I can pick them up there. The waiting kills me........
