...CT 82F DELUXE QUADRANT.
Of late my throttle has been hanging up, not stuck, just difficult to move. Releasing the locking knob had no effect.
In checking the thing over, I found the throttle lever is binding in the top surface slot it resides in. I lubed the slot and lever and it moves much better.
In looking at a photo of CT 82F in Vans catalog, the lever is not in the slot, it is outside the slot on the outboard side. (?)
I am wondering if I installed the device correctly.
It is the same set up with CT83F, the 3 lever deal for CS prop. That photo also shows the throttle lever out side the slotted piece and not in the slot.
How have you installed your CT82 or CT83 throttle lever. Is it in the slot on the piece with lettering or outboard of the top piece?
