Default Triple carb linkage issue solved

My throttle linkages are a kinda mish mash of Mk10 to link together 3xHS8s. Angles are wrong and when lifting off the accelerator gently the butterflies don't quite close so idles a bit high. Quick blip makes them close. So, I made an extension to the linkage spring attachment to increase its leverage. Perfect!! Yippee!

Excellent! Many shorten that damn spring slightly. Going to a heavier spring ruins the throttle pedal response.
