    Well, I’m pretty sure there is a "stop" on the throttle shaft that prevents the throttle shaft going past the WOT position and actually start closing again as the throttle is advanced. So, if you have the throttle shaft "pre loaded", excess pressure will be applied the throttle shaft and could cause premature wear.
    I’m confused though, because #39 should have a flat spot that corresponds to a flat spot in the throttle shaft….
