interesting solution to bike carb throttle return?
been looking at a mates diesel 306, he's got one of those pneumatic rams like you get on boots doors etc, on the throttle of his car.
not sure on the actual setting up involved, but could be an interesting solution to the throttle return issues?
perhaps the throttle close cable goes off to the ram? don't know exactly, and maybe more work than just fitting extra springs, but could make a
neat looking set up?

they might well be, but i know in some cases bike carbs don't return at all, i'd see it as more of a backup maybe?

his one was pushing at about 45 degrees, so i guess that takes some of the force out. don't know, was just an idea which might help if some are
a bit stuck on how to fit springs etc

If its already working on something then I guess it could work for someone stuck for an idea!
Didn't mean to "diss" your idea mate

ah not at all  its good to hear peoples concerns, might make me thing about something i'd overlooked, but yeah, its been on his 306 since it
was built, not sure if it being a diesel makes any difference, but it seemed an interesting idea for anyone struggling to fit extra springs etc.

May not be as good an idea as you think
mate. A lot of the 306guys at the time my self included remove them to improve throttle response. But if you can make it do what you want good luck

What wrong with the old spring on the pedal technique. Over engineering is sometimes the problem itself

i had been giving that one a lot of thought, as my first idea, but i'd be worried about the cable bending so the throttle returns, carbs are
wide open, and the cable jams against the side of the outer cable sleeve. used to happen a lot on my old go kart. i'd like something a bit more
reliable on this car!

They are a throttle damper - nothng more, nothing less. Definately NOT a return spring...
