Hi all,

Been a while since Ive been online. I finished my restore about 3 years ago, and been drivin but knew that my throttle linkage was never really right. I finally compared it to a friend with the same carb (1406) and realized that my secondaries were never opening. Please check the pics. I fabricated the bar that connects the kick down rod to the linkage. Not sure where I got the dimensions, it does work for kicking down, but I'm thinking the slot is not long enough to allow the throttle to fully travel backwards. If I disconnect the rod, then the throttle does open fully and open the secondaries. I'm just not sure about when the kick down should engage/disengage.

This was a 318 2bbl/904, I swapped in a 360 4bbl and kept the 904. The kick down rod is original.
