Hi,

I finaly have my 1960 240 Utility tractor running. I had to replace the battery, wires, alt, and starter. With all of this I went over to 12V. I have run into problem. To get the dash apart I had to remove the handle off throttle. Now that I have it back together I can not get it to work right. I am not sure what I have wrong.

Now the idle is very low and when I try to accelerate the throttle wants to go right back to where it was. It will not hold where I put it. I am thinking I have something hooked up wrong but I am not sure what. I can not find it in my shop manual.

Can anyone help me in how I should have my throttle assembled at the dash. I had the spring removed and the dash. The spring does not seem to be right I am thinking.

Thanks for your help
 

O crap that explains it. I have it reversed. When I installed the handle I put in at the bottom. So I was closing off the throttle fulling and killing the engine.

I just got this tractor and fixing her up. Been behind the wheel for less then 1 hour before I started to fix all the stuff that was screwed up on it.

One of those do I feel dumb moments. LOL
