I hope someone can help with either a part or just a measurement.

I have been re-building my 350 and I am missing ONE major bit...the small bit of metal wire that connects the throttle linkage to the carb.

Has anyone got one spare? or if you have a 350 with a Kohler K141 engine if you could measure it?

Thanks

I think you'll have more luck with someone helping you with this than you will with finding that particular spare part.

Have a "Search" through the forum's postings - I think you will find others with Howard 350s and maybe you could ask them directly.. 

Best of luck.

This site states that they have spares and parts (lots of) for Howard 350

but not sure if this is of use... "Tiller Parts" ?

Good luck with the search 

[jimbeekeeper]

Thanks but never had any reply in the past from that site/contact

[Paul Plots]

Sorry about that. I had it as a saved search.. can't recall if they responded or not.

I am going to have another look round my garage and where I was working tommorow in the hope I find it.

,  Here's wishing you the best of luck...

If you are like me it'll turn up a month after you've replaced it!! 

[jimbeekeeper]

I am sure I will have put it in a safe place so I dont loose it

Heaven help you if you have - I can never find those "safe places"

A few pictures of the Howard. I am still just "dry fitting" things before fully fixing, hence whyc some things are not there like controls and decals etc., But pleased how it has gone, apart from I have lost the bit of metal bar that goes from the throttle to the carb, so if anyone has a 350 that either ideally has a spare or can at least measure how long it is and I can make a new one. Thanks

[Paul Plots]

That is beautiful!

[jimbeekeeper]

Thanks but until I sort the throttle linkage out it is a nice looking heavy paper weight!

There must be another 350 owner out there that can get their ruler out and give me a meassurement??

It might be a bit naughty to suggest. ....but I wonder if a word on http://www.tractorbox.co.uk/forum/default.asp  might help your cause.??....

I suspect they might like to see your photos too.   there is much Howard orange paint to be seen at times.

Thanks Dori, they do like orange paint

That looks like a good idea...

But if you are still stuck let me know - when I get time and if I can find the chap there's a 350 owner on my site. I guess he would know which part you are describing & needing measurements for....(I'm not in the least up with anything with an engine.. but get the general idea and think I could locate the linkage on the engine). If I come across him using his Howard I'll do my best to help - if all else fails.
