1100 throttle linkage

[Anonymous]

Ok I just swapped out my orig 1100 carb for a rebuilt 1100.
When I picked it up it seemed to look the same but after getting it home I found that the holes on the carb were to small to fit onto the manifold by one size. Fixed that by drilling the holes one size bigger. Now for the?
After getting it bolted down I found that the linkage on the carb for the throttle seems to be different, Mine (67 Bronco 170) had more of straight pull across the top of the engine as the new one hangs further down on the pass side of the carb just enough for my cable to bind the linkage (it need more of an Upward pull) does :roll: the throttle cable linkage differ on 1100's
Or did I get a bad carb.

If they're both 1100s, they should be exactly the same. Post pictures and we'll let you know.

I picked up a few 1100's for my Offy setup on line and two of them had the type of pull across linkage that you seem to need.

I need a couple that work the way yours does.

I have one that has been rebuilt. Want to trade?

I will try to get some photos up but it seems that the throttle lever just hangs to low and my throttle cable that hooks to it is to short and can't make that upward pull to get it up and throttling. as for the trade i am taking it back to the rebild shop to see if they have one with the right travle on the throttle lever and if not I might trade ya.

Sounds like Gene 64 2dr can fix you right up.
