[6pack] Throttle shaft bushings

[michael lunsford]

Nice try to change the conversation Ashford.  
About 6 or 8 years ago there was a thread on this list about brass throttle
shaft bushings.  I didn't research the list archives on this but I suspect
that it could be found easily.  Nevertheless the end result was that there are
brass bushings available very cheaply from some parts house that have the
correct inside and outside diameter for the throttle shaft.  These have a lip
on one end and can be installed in the same simple and quick way that someone
just described for their home made piece.  The cost for teh brass bushings was
minimal so I ordered 10.  I used two for my car and gave the remaining eight
out to club members.  No need to re-invent the wheel so to speak and there is
no way you can make them as cheaply from scratch.  After 5 years they still
work like new. 
Now about the Garagemahal project!!
