Throttle handle removal accomplished
I thought you might find this interesting. Remember my comment saying that I was going to try coca cola for soaking the throttle rod. Well, it worked. I soaked it for about 4 days, and when done, all the rusted areas were shiny bright and clean. Apparently enough had gotten under the handle and rod ...

Throttle handle removal
Great info, thanks Dan, that puts me on the right track. My worry was that the rod might be threaded, but, now I know I can use a puller to get it off. I've had this machine for 36 years and this has never been apart. It's only the last 2 years that the throttle lost its' friction. Do you think I ca...
