The secondary spring arrangement is not really very safe.

I once had that spring pop off and my throttle went wide open.

Engine sucked it wide open......

The car was on the trailer inside my garage. I was messing with something, probably the carb.

I revved it up a couple times and it went wide open.....

I shut the air valve with my hands and a friend managed to kill the ignition switch.....He hit the switch so hard it broke off.....but did shut it down....

I never saw it happen before that on any Q-Jet.....street car or race car...

The spring must not have been properly in place but it showed me what could happen.....

Drill and pin the lever to the shaft.....

Q-Jets are great when they work well.....but can really give you fits....
