INSPECTION
(a)
Ensure that the mixture lever at the carburetor contacts both stops at either
extreme of its travel. It is important that there is a cushion when mixture knob is
in the fully open position. At the same time, there should be no mo
re than ¼”
cushion between the knob and the panel nut in the full rich position.
(b)
Inspect to be sure the cable attach swivel does not have excessive play and the
cable is held tightly by the clamp. However, it is important that the carburetor arm
moves freely. If an improper washer stack is used, then the mixture control can
clamp the bolt too tight and restrict.
(c)
Control operation should be smooth. Lubricate the cable as specified in Section 5.2
if/as required.
