Qjet clip info ?
For want of a throttle rod clip I can't fire the new engine.
 Ya after the seven years of parts storage I found and identified most things, but not this missing clip to attach throttle rod to carb butterfly cam. Of course local car parts shops can't help, and can't find any pictures to know what to look for. Here is picture of my carb with rod sitting there. Anyone ?

I think there is a hole for a cotter pin, don't see a groove for a clip. Also supposed to be a nylon bushing.

Re: Qjet clip info ?
I'm not sure if this will help, mine is currently with the engine builder but I found these pics on my pc.

Re: Qjet clip info ?
No cotter pin or groove, this must be a very early carb and
I believe would have a clip that looks like a claw.

You have the rod on backwards. The threaded part goes toward the firewall. The carb end gets a small washer and cotter pin and the firewall end gets one of the clips at the top of this picture. http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/de...0286&ppt=C0142 LockDoc

Re: Qjet clip info ?
As I recall it is a lot like this Camaro setup. Or they also have a $15.00 "universal' throttle rod if it is a matter of getting it running.

So I switched it and now lines up to allow the clip fit easily. Now I'll find the correct clip. The threaded rod end connector to foot pedal arm is a loose fit no room for a rubber bushing. Thanks.

No problem. Try your local auto parts store. I think my local NAPA store has them. LockDoc
