    Fuel pedal does not return

    I researched that, and the only springs are the return spring and this pedal spring. In this situation, the return spring was not enough to return the engine to normal idle, it needed another nudge which this pedal spring provides. In the event the fuel pedal ever gums up the added spring will...

    Fuel pedal does not return

    Finally fixed the issue of my fuel pedal not returning. The problem in the end was the fuel pedal itself had no spring action left in it's own operation. It was pretty gummed up, all the throttle linkage was mucked up too. Parts to replace were not expensive from Unipaser and EI except the Fuel...

    Fuel pedal does not return

    This issue will not leave me alone. Today while I was testing my Civilian Conversion Kit install, with drivers half of the doghouse off, I can step on the pedal or pull the throttle cable and the engine will rev up to about what I believe to be fast idle 1500 RPM or so and does not return back...

    Fuel pedal does not return

    Here is how I found it, I did a search on our favorite auction site but changed the domain to .de and looked for vendors that ship Worldwide (weltweit) and your login for the .com site works for the german site. Just do a search for: KABELBAUM KABELSATZ 4045400305/604041077800 UNIMOG 404 S in...

    Fuel pedal does not return

    Thanks for the advice. Ordered more MT-90 from Redline as draining gearbox and portal hubs requires refilling, and at $60 for a jug they better not be leaking, I'll be doing that very soon. I will do more reading up on fording. I'm waiting for one of the few remaining snorkel kits from Unipaser...

    Fuel pedal does not return

    Worst flood since Hurricane Sandy hit within 4feet of my front door. Flooding and high water here is unavoidable. If you actually have some helpful info on dealing with high waters and trucks please dispel your expertise. EBR Sheriffs Office has 2 or 3 M35A2 trucks, I know because they were...

    Fuel pedal does not return

    The saga continues... as I was traversing the flood waters in my neighborhood from Saturday's storm, I got the end of my block and my engine was over-revving as the fuel pedal did not return (again). I had to work the throttle knob and throw it into neutral, quickly pull the doghouse off and...

    Fuel pedal does not return

    After I got the batteries in and removed the hornets nest that was starting to grow under the koffer side door, I took it for a spin around the neighborhood. Got more whimsical looks from the neighbors. Then put it to work pulling a couple tree stumps in my front yard. Needless to say, a few of...

    Fuel pedal does not return

    Thank you. Will be ordering more of that LVP paint. that one can went a LONG way, the inside of the cab will be completely redone in the proper RAL6014 green. The outside on the other hand will have to think about that one. Turns out that the truck has 2 coats of paint on the outside. The...

    Fuel pedal does not return

    I am happy to report that after putting in a full day of work everything is working again, and some. While I did not pull everything out, after more close inspection, along with some logical thinking (ie messing with it) I determined that it was the throttle cable itself. The cable is housed...

    Fuel pedal does not return

    I? I inspired you? Now that made my day! I'm glad I inspired someone this week. You might be interested to read I did hit it with the lithium grease, first from a tube, then by spray (Liquid Wrench brand), and after a week of torrential rains and lots of humidity it seems to have gummed up...

    Fuel pedal does not return

    I thought I'd take a look here and I see someone else has the same issue! Only to read that it's buried in the FLU thread. Not owning a FLU I thought I could learn some good info by reading the thread. I started at 309 and worked backwards to page 99. Not anywhere did I find a length discussion...
