Title: Picture of 68 CJ accelerator bracket
Post by: Coralsnake on February 21, 2024, 06:54:41 PM
Bracket for return spring needed. I have a million pictures but for some reason this bracket eludes me.

I know what it looks like ...this small bracket is for the accelerator linkage return spring mounted on the carb

Is this one?  Looks like the return spring has been replaced by a larger one. Looks kind of like the reverse shape of the GT350 one

The picture Mr Speegle posted is the one Im familiar with, but it is mounted upside down.

The little foot isnt doing its job

Thats one version of the small block. There's another that has top cut at an angle and has single 90 degree bend like BB

Joe sent this picture of an original bracket

I think this is 1968 1/2 only

I do recall the NOS one being phosphated

I have one of these, thought it was something someone modified as it looked cut at the base.

Here is a photo from the 428 Cobra Jet Registry site of a 1968 throttle bracket.
