VEHICLE MAINTENANCE
If throttle return spring has been disconnected or removed, the carburetor linkage will be unloaded as shown in Fig. 1.
Loading the linkage (Fig. 2) is accomplished by rotating throttle lever to wide open throttle (clockwise) and by moving accelerator
control rod to the right. Do not rotate throttle lever directly, since it will snap to the closed position. Then attach throttle return spring
to trip lever. Secure opposite end of throttle return spring to retainer located at thermostat housing. Slowly return accelerator control
lever to idle position. Linkage is not loaded (Fig. 3).

The gasoline fuel filter is located in the carburetor fuel inlet line. For servicing intervals refer to Emissions Manual.
