 |

Hi John,
Problem is the least point of friction is between the AN970 washers and the nuts, you can tighten up the assembly, and it will still break out, at variable rates, at that junction.
Fix :
Weld fullnuts to the AN970 washers, bond/rivet the plastic washers to the other face of the washers [ Redux / csk rivets], flat the contact surface of the plastic dull, with 180 grit paper.
Assemble as Manual, but replace the spacer with washers to shim the lever in the middle of the slot, do the inboard nut/washer up very tight.Thread on lever, [you might have to thread it on before you run the first nut up, depending on throttle box width].
Do the outboard nut/washer/plastic washer up tight to required friction, keep a spanner [ wrench] on that nut as you run a stiffnut up to lock it tight.
Job sorted !

there's another way to stop throttle creep.
Instead of using the nylon washers I made largel nylon washers that located against the bottom of the throttle box so that when the throttle is moved the washers can't rotate.
Alternatively a long bolt through all the washers would also work.
