Fast idle cam threatening to fall off!

Post by JimmyJazz »

Hi guys,

Just put the carby pack on the engine and the fast idle cam (using the terminology from the FB holden workshop manual, figure 6B-13, page 6-43) keeps threatening to fall off the metal cylinder it sits on. Apparently there's meant to be a split pin that keeps it on but there is no hole for it to go through on my carby - and I don't remember pulling one off at any rate. Was just thinking of sticking a hose clamp on the protruding end of the knob. Is there anything I'm missing here and does anyone have any tricks?

Cheers,
James
