Lycoming IO360-M1B with Precision fuel injection servo and Van's "horizontal induction" cowl. "Deluxe" throttle quadrant and standard throttle cable from the finish kit. See the two images below.
Short of drilling a new hole in the throttle lever, is there a way to increase the throttle range? I clocked the lever on the fuel injector servo to allow full (wide open) throttle with the cockpit throttle lever pushed forward. But then pulling the cockpit throttle lever to idle does not allow the fuel servo's arm to contact the idle stop. I can re-clock the lever on the F/I so its arm contacts the stop at idle but then full throttle cannot be reached.
I measured the throttle cable's throw and it's approximately 1.9 inches. The lever arm on the F/I servo requires approx. 2.2 inches of linear travel for full range. Any ideas?
Full throttle:
Throttle at idle:
Thanks,
Joe
