|
As many of you know by now I am trying to finish my Allegro 2000 Kit. Among many small details that I have been unable to get help from my Distributor (i.e. “it’s a kit, you figure it out”), one is the following question concerning how to connect the throttle cable to the throttle lever clevis.
<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>
The cabin throttle lever has a metal clevis that is connected to the lever and swivels as the lever is moved. This clevis has a small hole in it for the cable to pass through. I have nothing to connect the cable to the clevis. Could some one look at their connection and explain how this is done. A close-up photograph would be very helpful. If your plane was purchased ready-to-fly you probably did not have to make this connection. I simply don’t have any parts for this and I need some direction.
<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]>
This may not be my last request for help in these small matters. All of your past advice and help is deeply appreciated. If I didn’t have you guys (The Matronics Allegro-List) I would be in “deep yogurt”. Many thanks!

Hugh,
I'm going to fly our Allegro for my BFR today. While at the hangar I'll
try to get a couple close-up photos of this are and post them this
evening.

Hi Hugh, I don't have a picture but if I remember correctly the throttle
cable has a stop swaged onto the one end. The other end of the cable gets
pushed through the hole, fed through the cable outer and onto the throttle
lever on the carb. The throttle lever on the carb has a spring pulling it
to the open position, and this maintains tension on the cable. So when you
open the throttle, the cable gets pulled forward by the spring on the
throttle arm on the carb. When you close the throttle, the swaged stop
can't go through the clevis and the cable is pulled back.
Regards
Dave
