Does anyone know of some good sites, pictures, tutorials, etc. on throttle linkage setups? I'm new to this cart building thing and this is where I'm stuck. I have a couple of briggs and some other clones (Greyhound and Powerhouse). Thanks.

I'll have to see if I have any here but it's simpler than you think. Any go kart shop will have kits with different types. Essentially, most of them will simply slide the cable through a hold in a piece of the kit and then you turn a screw to lock it down. I'll look to see if I have any here and if I do I'll post a pic.

Thanks BM. It does seem simple but if you've never done it then it does seem confusing (if that makes sense).

You can even use parts you find in a good local hardware store to set up linkage.

Yep, that is the fun of building... Using your imagination, and what you can find... Even cable assemblies for bicycles can be used, but they will break from time to time...
