I am almost finished installing my weber but have run into a problem with the acclelerator cable. It does not seem to return after pushing the pedal in. Without the cable it seems to return quite nicely. Here is a photo of the set up.

And the other side of the carb. The trumpets are 26mm if anyone is interested.

Do I need some sort of additional spring return or have I installed the part the throttle goes into incorrectly?

I got told u need a additional spring on it as the one in the webber is not strong enough

Yes you need another spring.

Also make sure that the spindle that the two butterfly's sit on it not too loose. This will give a rubbish return as well.

Thanks everyone for the replies. I figured out the cable guide was putting it at a funny angle. I ended up changing the cable linkage to one that sits on top with two return springs.

Any chance you can post your new linkage setup, I am trying to work out the easiest way to do it.

Here you go.

I have the accelerator cable coming around the front. There is a bit of a tight bend but the cable seems to move ok. With the two springs the effort required to push the pedal is pretty substantial so I might take one off and see if it suits me better.

On the very top picture there is a brass fitting that looks like as hose gets attached. Is it the hose from the clutch cover?

Wow that's some setup you have there. Should fix your return problem real good.
The brass fitting there would go to a brake booster through a non return valve or through a PCV Valve to the crankcase ventilation. Or blank it off. Depends on what systems you have attached.

Ahh, yeah I saw those and thought, there has to be a better and cheaper way than that. Reckon I need to play round it. If anyone else happens to want to pitch in a pic of how they run their setup that'd be grand.

I like it Kev,

Looks much better then my second setup, which is really convoluted. The action with yours is in line with the mechanism. Which is why I changed it to the wheel one in the first place.

Kev's setup is pretty Std, but there has to be a simpler setup. It seems very convoluted for what should be something quite simple really.

Still installing but my new Mangoletsi has NE impressed. Throttle cable comes over the rocker on the right.

60mm trumpets tucked away inside the Ramair if anyone is interested. :)

Ahh, the benefits of the weber box. No way they fitted with a std firewall on my car. Next mod will be a box using your dimensions.
