    Hmmm…Looks like the vertical throttle link hits its block easily….Looks like the mag plate hits its block easily when disconnected and moved manually, which would seem to say the plug wires are not causing a problem and the mag plate isn’t binding….
    Does the vertical throttle rod hit its block when connected to the mag plate? I seem to remember Frank bringing up a good point awhile back. He pointed out that sometimes the aluminum vertical throttle rods get a bit twisted…. Looks like there is wear on the block where the mag plate hits at WOT which indicates the throttle linkage worked properly at some point…
