Title: Throttle stop on a Series 2
Post by: BERNIEHUMBER on Friday,December 23, 2022, 12:33:44 PM

HI:
I replaced a throttle cable on my T2 but I noticed that part of my problem was the throttle stop or lack of on the pedal.
I know what to expect from the parts catalogue but does any one have an actual pic of what I should expect to see?
Has anyone else put in their own version of?
Thanks and the best of the season to you all!
Bernie

I made this on a friends S2 a few days ago.
Its just a bolt on the backside of the pedal

How does the bolt connect to the pedal? Is there a welded nut back there?

HI Rainer:

Thanks

To be precise, there is a nut welded to the pedal and the bolt is screwed into the nut.
Seems factory to me, at least i am sure the owner can't weld.
