Today, I hope to fabricate the new throttle linkage for the Weber. I use motorcycle throttle cable instead of links and
pivots.. I've been busy with other projects for the last week.
It appears I have the engine in the right spot. I made new
clutch linkage last week.. And, oh yeah, that orange stuff on the floor is silicone rubber sheeting... It's used by line men when working on live power wires to insulate them... They just throw a sheet of it over a nearby wire... I got mine out of the
trash at work...It's pretty good at insulating heat and noise.
I am replacing some of it with Dyna Mat..I think glueing the mat
down is the way to go. With a Willys Truck you get LOTS of noise
from wind and drive train... They were designed to cruise @ 45 mph.... Not 65-70 mph...
