Reply to "gas pedal"

Yes! There is a threaded adjustment and lock-nut at each end. But your problem sounds to me, like you need a stronger throttle return spring. Or more than one spring. Or that your cable may be "gummed-up" and in need of some lubricant. Or the carb. butterfly valves and/or shaft are sticking and need a shot of WD-40. Lastly! There is also a gas pedal "position" adjustment, way up to the top of the pedal mount(a simple bolt-stop with a lock-nut)(this might be what you are looking for). This is to help eliminate the slack/play out of the gas pedal movement in relation to the carb. butterfies opening and in turn improve on reactionary throttle reponse. I have my gas pedal stop adjusted with very, very little slack! You need some to allow for "things" getting hot and expanding around, and on the engine. As soon as I TOUCH the pedal, the throttle shaft is responding! Best of luck with it, Marlin. #5723
