Recall notes | Ford campaign no h-ob. Possibility that the 2v carburetor used on 302, 351 and400cid engines with automatic transmission may have misalignment between thetransmission linkage lever and adjusting screw assembly and the throttle levertab. If condition exists, it may cause contact between the screw threads andthe edge of the throttle lever tab and cause throttle to stick in an openposition.(correct by inspecting and realigning linkage where necessary). |
