[Gengis]

Yes please

yep, there is a fix:

That will do the job!

I had these guys send me two new springs for my 12HT. It was the solution. I’d been running
on just a couple of cheap generic throttle springs, but having the correct tension is important.

I used a ‘dash pot’ to reduce the jerky throttle from idle in my hj61. It helped greatly as it slows the injector pumps return to idle. It still is touchy (which I quite like for some reason), but no where near as touchy as it was before....
I can take photos if anyone is interested...

Definitely interested

Holley make a universal type dashpot.

Here is the Dash Pot... I got it from the wreckers and made up a stainless bracket...
It is only used for the final few mm of the throttle returning to idle.
Sorry for the bad photos!!

My truck had really touchy throttle response since I got it. Came to realize that there was only one, old spring where there should be two. Ordered NEW ones from cruiserworld, and holy $hit it’s like driving an 80 now...so smooth. BONUS TIP: getting the second end of the spring mounted on the rod was a PITA! Until I used a small zip tie head to hook the second end of the spring, then mount the forward end, then use that zip tie to pull the spring out of the rubber hose and onto the second rod.

I know I´m writing to a old thread.

Recently bought a HJ61 with super sensitive throttle. Had a stiffer spring made and its much much better, almost good .

Originally there are 2 springs and both are inside of a rubber hose. I think the rubber hose is there to delay the action of the springs, should work as a damper for the spring action. You have to pull the spring out from the rubber hose or push it into the hose.

I have 2 new springs on order and will do a writeup after installing them.

Here is my spring setup as of now.

I know its becoming a old threat. The biggest difference for me as of now fixing the sensitive throttle is I got a new leaf springs from OME. the softest. The car is 100% better now regarding jumpy throttle, I would even consider it cured ( with the stiffer spring on the throttle body to ). So part of the problem in my case where way to stiff leaf springs giving a jumpy ride affecting the throttle through the pedal.

yet again reviving this thread since all the old posts are old and links are broken.

Can anyone post a link to correct springs or fix for this?

This one works, but initially it went to a 404 page, just wait a few seconds and it jumped to the website.

Spring accelerator cable 12H-T - CruiserWorld

Spring is located at fuel pump of 12H-T motor. There are, originally, 2 of these springs to slow down the accelarator cable. 12H-T is rather agile when pressing the accelerator pedal. When these springs loose tension, the 12H-T is even more responsive, and the springs need replacing. Priced...

Wow. It's going to cost me 100 bucks to get these to me lol. I may try other random springs first but I do appreciate this as a last resort.

Group buy?

Group buy?

I have just become a hand throttle expert , but I would be interested in this idea..

 

[Nick0615]

I'd be down if we can get enough people. How's that work with everyone being all across the US though?

Shipping them in the US is $8 in a USPS box. It's that leap over the ocean that's rough

 

[FJBen]

Is this the same springs that go on a 13bt?

Probably not, but thought I’d ask

are you sure about that shipping cost? Maybe overnight delivery was selected? There is no way that I paid even a third of what you quoted. You may want to reach out to them and verify shipping cost of two lightweight springs to the states.

It's possible I had something selected or the system was glitching. I'll have to double check.
