Need help with 80 FI Resto

Post by ososbob »

Hoping for some help here. I'm putting back together my 80 FI Spider and need a good photo of the pdeal assembly so I know where to hook the springs. I knew I should have photographed them before I took it apart. If some one has a pic or two I would really appreciate it. Thanks, Bob

You need a pic of the throttle pedal return spring that's under the dash?

Yes, I'm pretty sure that is what I need. I have the larger spring connected to the brake pedal.

Bob, I looked, but I can't take a pic, because there is something in the way.
The spring goes nearly straight up, angles to the left a bit. I connects to a tab that is just the the left of where the wiring harness goes through the firewall.
