 Very good point on the spring, Ed.  No need to have the engine go to idle
in the event the throttle cable fails.  I just started the engine....started
after about two revolutions. Just ran it for a couple of seconds....ran on
only the small amount of starting fluid I shot into the throttlebody. I am
now hooking up the fuel pump and lines. Will try to start it with fuel in a
couple of hours if all goes well.  Paul Conner
