XFlow Throttle Linkage

Anyone else fingd that the throttle linkage plate was sticking up too high for comfort?

This is a 1600 with twin choke Weber.

Any ideas?

Cheers

Yes, that and the cable was stoping me getting the bonnet on, So I changed the carbs to R6 ones and now it's all sorted, sorry not the answer you were looking for I guess, but if the linkage is too high, try fitting the bonnet over the carbs as well

Yep, I had this problem, the bonnet lifted up as you accelerated at first!!

Not too good, so I fitted a bulge. All fine now.

I had this problem with the Motorcraft carb. I modified the bracket so that the cable came in just below horizontal instead of sloping down from above, if that makes sense.
