Moral is, if the clamp is straight back, so its easily accessible with a screw driver then it can interfere with the accelerator so clearance should be verified. First pic, the accel coupling. Second pic the accel linkage hits hose clamp screw. SHEESH




George,

Where is the item in the first picture located in the second picture? Must be blind not to see it in the picture. Thanks.
