the dash switch is the 'throttle switch.' When the O/D is actuated there =

simple adjustment using a certain diameter--I don't recall it offhand, =
but I'll look it up if you need it--drill bit under the throttle stop =
levers. There's a small shaft off the throttle mechanism that opens this =
switch--it's just a set of points and a cam inside--with a lever with a =

class=3D"">What keeps the O/D from disengaging immediately when you open =
the dash switch is the 'throttle switch.' When the O/D is actuated there =
is a parallel circuit that will keep the O/D activated until you press =
the accelerator pedal, theoretically preventing reverse thrust from =
damaging the O/D. The parallel circuit runs through the throttle switch =
on the scuttle (firewall); it sounds like you need to adjust it. It's a =
simple adjustment using a certain diameter--I don't recall it offhand, =
but I'll look it up if you need it--drill bit under the throttle stop =
levers. There's a small shaft off the throttle mechanism that opens this =
switch--it's just a set of points and a cam inside--with a lever with a =
pinch clamp. Just loosen the pinch clamp, set the bit under the throttle =
stop plate and tighten the clamp.<br class=3D""><br class=3D"">If you =
O/D is actuating consistently within a couple seconds or so then your =
solenoid, operating lever, operating shaft and ball 'valve' are correct. =
The 'stick-a-drill-bit-through-the-lever-into-the-housing' method is =
notoriously unreliable; the proper setting is best achieved by measuring =
the lift--IIRC, it's 1/32" but not sure--of the operating shaft at the =
top of the O/D hydraulic section.<br class=3D""><br class=3D"">Bob<br =
