Throttle Linkage Detail
My car - untouched since factory rebuild - did not have any washers. I will replace them with wired allen head screws. Have seen too many stripped Weber stud threads and heard too many stories of engines chewing nuts.tyang wrote:Another point to make is about the nuts that hold the air filter assembly in place. Originally, I believe they came with washers and nylock nuts. We usually eliminate the washers and use only the nylock nuts. There is usually enough material for the nuts to hold down the air cleaner. Eliminating the washers lessens the chance of having a one fall down into a carburetor. That would be bad.
Baldwin 1814 should fit a 330GT, PA634 fits the 250 GT models.

How true. I've had to helicoil over half of the dozen studs for the carbs over the years. Everytime I take off the air cleaner, I expect to find another stud that comes out with the Nylok nut.kare wrote:...

I beginning to think that the chicken wire isn't a bad idea afterall. My car had an engine rebuild early on in its' already low mileage life. I wonder...Hmmm...330GT wrote:How true.
