Kevin and Mike - - thanks for the replies. while the isolation coupler may not be causing my clutch and throttle cables to bind, it certainly deserves an inspection.

I get what you're saying about the petroleum grease breaking down the bushings. I'll take your advice and use synthetic grease.

Question: isn't the "throttle reversing lever" called the "bell crank housing?" - - If that isn't the dard-est name? how on earth they come up with that name is beyond me...

Thanks again!
