[Healeys] 100 throttle linkage--assembly help needed

[Mark Donaldson]

Michael,

 

I think these two images may be of help.

Note:  The ball that links the carb actualting arm is incorreectly shown in this photo facing towards the engine.  

It should be facing out, so that link is directly in line with the the arm above.

The bellcrank faces with its arms toward the engine – long arm on the left – short arm on top.

The long return spring hooks through the cotter pin.

 



 

 

The drag link appears not to be connected in this photo - hence the odd angle.  It should be parallel to the chassis box section.

In order to remove the intake and exhaust manifolds to access to repair the broken exhaust pipe for cylinders 1 and 4 I had to undo the throttle linkage.  Stupidly I did not diagram how everything was oriented prior to disassembly and I am having difficulty getting the linkage back together.  Specifically, I need to know how the bell crank mounts:

1.  Does its acute angle (less than 180 degrees) face up or down when the bellcrank is mounted on the post?
2.  Is the spacer/bushing that is attached to the bellcrank facing inboard (towards the block) or outboard when the unit is slipped over the post?

Also, to what does the long throttle-return spring hook?

TIA....Michael Oritt
