Had a wierd experience recently. Driving down the road in my SV, when
the car suddenly started decelerating. Just as if I had removed my foot
from the pedal. No throttle responce. I had to use the choke to get
home, which by the way is a great cruse control..if you like 45mph.
When I got home, I expected some broken linkage. But guess what. I had
recently replaced the breathers, and apparently did not get the bolts
tight enough. Both breathers, and the bracket on the forward carb had
fallen off to the right. I know I tightened the bolts when I installed
the breaters. Should I try some thread lock, lock washers, or what?
