What NHTSA recorded

There may be breakage in the spriral-shaped spring mounted on the carburetor throttle control lever. This will affect the responsiveness of the accelerator pedal to driver pressure and could affect engine control.

Remedy

The dealer will replace the throttle control lever system with the system in current production.
