Jun 12, 2021     Problem attaching throttle control - (.5 hour)       Category: Controls
A bit of a complication in following the step to attach the throttle cable to the throttle arm on the engine and the throttle control in the fuselage. The instructions call for you to advance the throttle lever about 3/16" from the aft cutout and then tighten and clamp it down at the engine.

My throttle lever in full aft position is still about 1/4" forward of the aft cutout. Investigation reveals the underlying lever mechanism hits the stop, which is the bulkhead. I suppose I could file that down to allow the lever to hit the aft portion of the cutout, and then set it according to the instructions, so I send support a message at Van's for their assessment.
