[TR] TR3 carb bushings

[greg at gelhar.com]

I have installed the throttle shaft bushings with good success. But you
have to have a piloted reamer or a modified reamer with a 5/16 shaft long
enough to pass through both sides of the carb. I do this work on a metal
cutting lathe with slow spindle speeds, Remember not to ream all the way
through. Leave about a sixteenth inch on the butterfly side for each
bushing.
