Question for the list:

My 76 TR6 throttle has a setup that I have not seen in any of the shop
manuals or parts catalogs.  The setup is as follows:

The support bracket assembly (mounted to the two carbs, ZS 175 CDs) has a
bracket the has a 'U' shaped slot.  The Adjustable control rod (between the
pedal shaft and the bell crank) passes through this bracket.  There is a
spring on the control rod that is between the point where the control rod
mounts to the bell crank and the 'U' shaped slot.  It seems to be a return
spring, but it does not appear to be strong enough to fully return the
accelerator pedal to a neutral position.  Is this something that was
standard with the 76 model or a change made by a DPO?  Planning to buy a new
return spring (part of the TRF sale catalog).  Wanted to be sure that the
current setup was not standard before I make changes.
