Looks like I have a "slight" leakage problem at the throttle shafts. Curious as to the wisdom of using oversized throttle shafts as opposed to having them rebushed... I think rebushing sounds like th

Is it bad enough to cause a problem? What are the symptoms? Check out the new British Cars Forum: http://www.team.net/the-local/tiki-view_forum.php?forumId=8

Well, the symptom is that as the car warms up, I can't get the idle down below 1500 RPM. I've checked for vacuum leaks using carb cleaner spray at all the usual suspect locations with no change. I've

Either is fine. A couple of things though. 1) Don't you still have to bore out the current bushings so they are the proper size for the oversized throttle shafts? 2) There used to be a page on the Ch

Much better to re-bush. If you go oversize on the shafts you have to drill out the fittings as well. Bruce Cynamon Peterson Industries, Inc. 305-691-7943 Phone 305-693-0754 Fax bruce@petersonindustri

Get a new spindle, but do not forget to have new bearing fit into the carb! Furtheron have the spindles regulary lubricated - every month when low milage or every 1000 miles. When oil is applied regu

I agree. But there are two choices as mentioned - one is to get the oversize shafts and then bore to fit. Such a tool could be bought or made, or so I heard. But it is doable. But I think the right w

If your reference to 'slight' being in quotes was an ironic reference to 'massive' then mixture could be bypassing the butterflies through the bushings, but they would have to be very worn, yet you s

You may not need any bushing work. New standard-size shafts may solve the leakage problem. The usual wear point is at the linkage end of the shafts, on the lower circumference. This is because of the

Another way to check for a leak at the shafts is to suirt engine oil on the shafts whith the engine running. If there's appreciable leakage the engine will slow down because the oil will temporarily

If you have HIF carbs, Then you can try this fix. I used this method on my HIF's and it worked fine. All you need are four new bushings, two new throttle shafts, and some materials from any good loc
