Throttle bracket on a auto first gen need pic

[JStokes]

As everyone may have read I am putting a Cummins in a Suburban. My motor is a late 91 intercooled and came out of a 1 ton truck with a manual transmission. The last couple days I have been toying with my kickdown cable and am having a hard time getting it adjusted correctly. If some one could post a picture of their kickdown bracket on an auto transmission truck I would appreciate it.

Here you go. This is my 93 linkage.

That's a nice lookn' throttle assy you got there Philip. Do I see a fresh lift pump

 

[Philip]

Yea its new Scott. :-laf You didn't look under the hood at SOP3. I put it on not to long before the meet.



I am going to have to do a bushing on the bell crank soon.



New injectors in a week or so.

For the original poster, that spring on the TV cable is not OEM. Philip added that.

Mom's auto has something real similar, been there since I bought it in 99.

I could be wrong. It happened once... :-laf



I don't like the weird twist mine seems to have, it is hell on the linkage, clips etc. But it is adjusted right and works great.

There is supposed to be a spring on the TV cable. It returns the cable to the rest position. I have never seen one with out a spring in that location... .



Your truck does not have one????

 

[sdstriper]

I stand corrected, again... And Greenleaf is correct, my truck does not have one.

 

[Greenleaf]

I'm not being smart, I just gotta know. You drive it like this as I imagine and don't notice any strange situations?

 

[sdstriper]

Not a strange thing happening with the exception of about 2-3 quarts of fluid coming out around the weld on the Torque converter. 2-3 quarts of fluid per day I might add :--) I haven't been using it but tonight is the night the transmission is coming out, out with the old and in with the new. Might have to slap a spring on the linkage too...

On a side note the 89' FSM says, back side of the pin to the rear side of the slot is . 225 or 5. 7mm



Hope that helps and good luck.
