IMPROPER STEERING CLAMP BOLTS AND TORQUE APPLIED DURING INSTALLATION. THE BOLT COULD FAIL, ALLOWING THE STEERING YOKE TO BECOME LOOSE. Remedy: INSPECTION AND, IF NECESSARY, INSTALLATION OF PROPER STEERING SHAFT CLAMP BOLTS TIGHTENED TO SPECIFICATIONS.
THE ACCELERATOR ROD HOLE CLEARANCE IS NOT ADEQUATE AND CAN CAUSE THE ACCELERATOR LINKAGE TO BIND.

Remedy: ENLARGE THE ACCELERATOR ROD HOLE TO ELIMINATE INTERFERENCE WITHIN ACCELERATOR LINKAGE.
