We have an automatic mechanical KSB (cold start advance)
Engine running the
advance lever is easier to move by hand.
If the
throttle lever rests against the stop screw cold, the cold start is bypassed or misadjusted.
If the
throttle lever does not rest on the stop screw warm, cold start is broken.
the only way the cold start cable should be interacted with is to bull the cable block enough to give it 1/4 turn in its receiver allowing it to drop back and have no effect...do this before setting IP timing, or if the device is stuck. anyone who's tampered with the set screw on the block did it wrong.
cold, the
advancearm should be off its stop, settling back to the stop tab as it warms...if it isn't there warm, the timing is probably set wrong.
many times I see the idle settings changed to compensate for a nonfunctional cold start the wrong way.
The auto trans
emergency stop lever has a link to defeat cold idle-up in event of a cold start runaway, that's the downward cable.
I stole Nevadans pic, thanks.
