My 31 Tudor has never been restored but well maintained. The body + interior parts are all original.
Problem - the notches on the hand throttle are pretty much worn flat.
What "make-do" repair can I do to make the control stay in one place while driving. I'd like to use it most when warming up the engine. But, maybe occasionally other times.
Is replacement the only possible solution? I really want to disassemble the steering assembly just to the the manual control working/staying in position.
All ideas greatly appreciated.
