12HT 60 series ?

Post by MUD000 »

Just started driving my 60 series & have noticed that it is very touchy on the go pedal. if you r driving in 2nd or 3rd & bounce on the go pedal the hole car starts to pig root & this is very annoying & embarassing is this normal or could there be another problem ? Only done about 600km since on the road.

Its fairly normal.....2h's are reknown for it.

Since i turned my fuel up, it makes it more touchy, but you get over it and learn how to drive it properly.

I have a similiar issue with mine however mine is so bad it will stall after stabbing the pedal and it has been suggested that an external dampener can be fitted to fix it
I believe some governors have it built in and some don't but a quick fix is to fit the dampener which costs around $150-250
Has anyone had one fitted or know about them?

Try fitting a heavier spring here, it will stiffen it up some pehaps it may be more acceptable. cheers
