I hope this has a simple solution..... Was driving about today rather slowly in second for long stretches when I went around a corner and uphill. As I increased the pressure on the accelerator pedal

Hi Ron, It sounds like a carburetor linkage problem. I am not familiar with the BJ8 linkage as much as the BT7 and BT7 that had wrong twin HDs on it... In several places on the linkages between the p

I jacked the car up and got under. A friend pushed the pedal down and I could see everything moving fine. Problem is, when you pull the pedal back (closer to driver) to "tighten" it, you DO NOT see

My bud and I spent some time under the car this morning and are certain that nothing that you can see is slipping. It's easy to see the various rods turn and move when you push the throtle peddle bu

Sounds like a loose pinch bolt on the pedal shaft or one of the accelerator relay levers. Vrooom vrooom, John Check out the new British Cars Forum: http://www.team.net/the-local/tiki-view_forum.php?

That's exactly what we think. It's got to be something that connects to the part of the rod dissapearing into the driver's footwell connecting at 90degrees to the rod that comes back parallel before

The pinch bolt on the pedal shaft as it exits the foot box has to be really, really tight. So much so that you will be afraid of twisting the head off the bolt. To assure myself of a good bolt, I su
