[AT] Case VAC

    Steve and I had a good visit at the banquet. Checkers also sat with us. 
Lots of food and visiting.

    I have made a simple clip to fit over the throttle rod. Drill a hole a 
little bigger than the rod and a smaller hole on the other end for a return 
spring hooked to any convenient place. The foot pedal sometimes has rust 
where it mounts under the platform and may need a shot of your favorite 
penerant. Sometimes the pin the pedal pivots on will break and bind the 
pedal. The little coil spring on the linkage pivot is usually broken and I 
don't know if there is a replacement for them, but the extra return spring 
will wokr as well or better.

Gene:
Lubing the rod where it passes through the bracket and lubing the foot
throttle cured it. It is still a tiny bit weak on the return but I
suspect a little "springing" of the spring that is mounted on the
pivot lever (probably not its name) just above the foot throttle may
help that. I'll have to look at it sometime.
