edelbrock carb

[MillerTime]

wondering if anybody is using this type of carb, I'm having a problem with my thumb throttle it is like pushing a brick with my thumb
thumb gets to the point where I can't push the throttle, I'm trying to get some feed back from actual users
be for complaining to the company about the problem.

ive heard people clipping a coil off the spring to soften it up - do a search. mine was the other way around, i had to put a heavier spring on it because it would stick open...i sold it, it was nice, i just could never get it set-up

Yeah I should of done a surch on this type of problem, I don't have a problem setting it up, just can't finish a race without using the palm of my hand to push the throttel.
I would hate to by a new carb.

I had the same problem with mine, I never fixed it I ended up selling it.

Check your accelerator pump. If the rod that connects to the pump piston is bent, worn, or in a bind, it will make operating the throttle difficult. I called Edelbrock's support, you can find the number on their web site, when my throttle started sticking and was difficult to operate. They sent me a new and improved accelerator pump piston and the carb is better than new. They changed the design and it works smooth as silk now.

been riding with this problem for about 8 months, I should enter the strong thumb competition.
The things been like that since I got it,
I'll have to give them a call to see what they will do for me,

Thanks all
