return springs

I don't have the tub on the chassis yet. The return springs for the clutch and brake when installed will pull the pushrod out of the master cylinder (which I don't have yet) and leaves alot of slack in the clutch cable. I'm thinking that when the tub is installed there will be a spring against the tub to counter the return spring on the frame. There by keeping the linkages in some sort of neutral position. I don't recall how it came apart it was 3 1/2 years ago and I don't see any in my box of parts. Does anyone have a picture?

Also is there a throttle return spring? Don't have one. Don't recall one. But think I need one. Where does it go?

 

Bump stop on the floor board as I recall, not a spring.

I went to hanging pedals, so all I have to work from is memory.

 

There are coil springs between the pedal arm and the tub so when the pedal is at rest the tub is cushioned from the pedal arm.

Listen to Nick, not me

 

I don't know about your project, but here is pic of my stock throttle return from my 71 v6.

The 134 is set up totaly different. It has an elaborate system of rods and pivots, but I don't see where a return spring would fit into the mix.

 

On an f-head, the throttle return spring mounts on the ear of the pivot that the accelerator pedal rod goes into. The spring goes on the leading edge, and connects downwards to a plug on the block with a hole drilled thru it. Pulls the assembly back to idle position once pressure is taken off the gas pedal.

Thanks Sidscj, Didn't even notice the hole in the plug but I do now.
