Hi All,
I am reassembling my 1950 ½ ton and I cannot seem to get the pedal accelerator rod and the carbareto linkage to connect. I am pretty sure I am using the hardware I took off the engine but previous I was using a 216 and now I am using a 235.
The original accelerator pedal rod had a single long radius curve. The end now does not match up with the pivoting bracket that links to the carburetor. I searched the internet looking for pictures but all the pedal rods seemed to be “S” shaped.
Do I have to change the pedal rod to use a 235 engine in my truck? Does anyone have pictures of what the proper set up should look like? I should also mention I was running a 1939 216in if that makes a difference.
Thanks,
Skipper
