What NHTSA recorded

Due to an improperly seated bushing in the carburetor secondary barrel body, a portion of the spiral return spring of the throttle plate opener may restrict the free return of the secondary barrel throttle plate.

Remedy

The dealer will inspect and, if necessary, modify the throttle return spring.
