 Carb return spring outer replacement
Any ideas? I've hauled the spindle out the carb but it is still a mystery.   I need to change the broken outer carb return spring as its broken but I haven't a scooby how?! Currently my throttle sticks and it makes D*lly a real pig to drive and my brakes hot! Any clues? Cheers Tim

 Re: Carb return spring outer replacement
Still no wiser... Thanks for the pics though. Perhaps I need to grind the end off and then weld it back on?

 Re: Carb return spring outer replacement
all i was going to do was fit a long return spring to the throttle arm to pull the arm back and just leave the broken spring in place

 Re: Carb return spring outer replacement
I want to replace the smaller outer spring between the bendy outer plate and smaller inner plate that interacts with the other bits. I'll do some more pics later to try and explain. Thanks Tim

 Re: Carb return spring outer replacement
About to do this job too, I'm a bit behind. that end bit SHOULD come off the spindle so you can get at the springs. Is it going to be at brute force job to pull it off? Bollocks I was hoping that was going to be the easy fun bit

 Re: Carb return spring outer replacement
Further to previous post now at same stage as you. I've managed to twist my spindle  So err on the gentle side for now! will now have to get the spare one off the spare carb, but the screw heads on that butterfly are worn out, can't get a turn on them
