Does anyone have a pic of the original push rod type accelerator linkage that goes from the carb to the pedal. I have a 66 and the guy i bought the truck off of had a welding rod stuck in there and i can't even get full throttle. I have check lmc , brothers to no avail. I guess i will have to build one, any other ideas?

What is the answer? I have the same problem! Not a welding rod, but I have a carb spring that is rubbing on the intake manifold. I recently changed from a 250 to a 292, and it seems the extra height of the 292 has thrown the throttle linkage off. Photos of a correct 292 throttle linkage would be very helpful.

I use 1/4 rod as similar to original, just cut & bend to your needs. It can be threaded for adjustability if you have the end pieces.

I found this illustration in one of my manuals. It should be helpful in addressing your throttle linkage issues.

Good luck with your project.

I can send you a pic of one from my 66 if you still need it.
