## What is wrong

THE THROTTLE ANGLE SENSOR ON THE CARBURETOR MAY CONTAIN   A NYLON ROTOR WHICH HAS NOT BEEN HEAT TREATED.  ROTORS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN HEAT   TREATED CONTRACT IN THE PRESENCE OF HEAT CAUSING THE THROTTLE MECHANISM TO       STICK.                                                                                                                                                            CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: THIS MAY CAUSE THE THROTTLE TO STICK IN THE OPEN          POSITION WHICH MAY RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL LEADING TO AN ACCIDENT.             ALSO,VEHICLE MAY NOT CONFORM WITH STANDARD 124.


## The remedy

REPLACE THROTTLE ANGLE SENSOR ASSEMBLIES WITH NEW HEAT        TREATED ROTORS WITH LARGER INSIDE DIAMETERS.
