Throttle linkage spring, for Sprint.

#1 Post by RSi »

Is the spring on the throttle linkage the same for an automatic Sprint and manual, and are they the same as the 1850? Who has the best ones?

Built 26/6/1980, 3 previous owners (2 within the same family).

If you mean the spring on the bracket underneath the carbs; where the accelerator cable ends, the parts book has UKC1624 listed for both the 1850 and the Sprint. I can't see any separate part for the automatic.

The 3 springs at the top of the carbs; are 145197 for the 1850 and 159463 for the Sprint.
I don't think there would be any prefered source: it's a spring; a common engineering part.
