Locar kickdown adjustment

I set mine up at w.o.t. Just a little slack in the cable. With the carb at idle there is about 3/16 slack in the cable. There is about 1/4 turn of k.d. lever travel before you feel the spring tension. When the throttle opens enough to take up the 3/16 slack it starts to apply pressure to the throttle valve. If your into that spring tension at idle it’s going to shift late and hard. Some guys run a return spring on the lever to help this. I did some editing to try to make this clearer, but I’m not sure I did.
