O. Line up the two armed throttle arm with the inner

movement. If drag is felt, adjust the distance
between the two throttle arms.

the inside of the inside throttle arm and tighten
screw.
R. Install the carburetor over the carburetor studs
until it sits flat on the gasket.
S. Install the four 5/16” nuts and washers on the
studs and tighten.
T. With a jam nut installed on each rod end, install
the 5/16” coupler shaft between the two rod ends.
Adjust the coupler until the angle of the carbure-
tor enclosure throttle arm matches that of the
carburetor throttle arm.
U. Install the supplied 10-32 jam nut on the 1” 10-32
screw and insert into the idle bracket. (See Fig. 9.)
V. Install the fuel lines on the carburetor. See Fig. 10

1. Install the -8 bulkhead nut and O-ring on the
bulkhead fitting.
2. Thread the bulkhead fitting into the front
hole in the carburetor enclosure.
3. Install the fuel lines into the carburetor bowls
loosely.
4. Connect the free end of each fuel line to the

5. Install the -8 straight hosebarb fitting on the
inside of the bulkhead fitting. Install the -8
120
°

6. Measure and cut the supplied pushlock
hose so that it will fit well between the two
installed barb fitttings.
NOTE: The 10-24 screw should not
protrude past the nut. Use
washers as necessary to ad-
just the thread depth.
