1601 Throttle

[turboblue46]

I have a problem with my hand throttle. I pull it back to the engine speed that I want. But just soon as I let go of it. It creeps back down to a slow idle. It doesn't die but it comes close sometimes. Is there a adjustment on this thing somewhere to stop this. Thanks Mike

Yes there is an adjustment, where it comes out the side.
First pull off the cover in front of the shifter off,the one below the key.
Then look inside the dash, on the right hand side you will see where the lever comes thru, I think it takes a 17mm or ??
just tighten it up a bit, not a lot or it wont move,and squirt some oil on it.
Replace the cover & enjoy !
