Gas Pedal Linkage

[Clipper Joe]

Hello Clipper Owners,

Just Wanted To Share What I Just Found While I Was Doing Some Maintenance On My Clipper 'Wilson'
I Was Checking The Adjustment On ThermoQuad Carb.
Found Out That It Was Only Opening Secondary Butterfly Only 1/4 The Way @ Full Depressing Of Foot Pedal. As I Was Checking, There Is A Adjustment Of The Linkage Arm.

The Way To Check Is To Do This On A Cold Engine & Off Press Pedal To Floor & Look Into Carburetor, You Want It Almost All Open On Secondary Side.
This Has Made The Clipper Run So Much Better, And Climbing Mountain Roads, Has Been A Big Improvment.
I Still Have Not Check The Extra Gas Useage But The Preformance Is Worth Less MPG.
I Try & Run 55-60 MPH Down Highway. This Saves A lot Of Gas. Less Wear & Tear On These Old Rigs.

Please Reply If Have Any Questions On This...
