Ford 1821 Industrial Foot throttle

Trying to fugue out how the foot throttle hooks up to the hamd throttle linkage. There are parts missing so not sure what I'm missing. The hand throttle works excellent but it sounds be nice to have the foot plate hooked up. Anybody have one with a foot throttle that they could take some pics of yours. Thanks

looks like all you need is the linkage rod between your pedal and that bell crank lever. An 8n carburettor to governor linkage rod with the correct spring-loaded
socket ends is 7 inches long. If you need less or more than that you can always shorten the rod or make a longer replacement.

Nope that won't work. The top ball you see must move either forwards or backwards to operate the Throttle linkage. It does need that ball to ball connector but even something else

Hi NAS,

There is a good diagram of the 1801 diesel throttle control petal on this website (see link & photo below). The website is nice since you can zoon in, and it
has a list the parts with some still being available. But ouch those prices are sharp. One thing to note, if you changed out the steering to the 4140 system,
that would affect your throttle control linkage and you would want to see the one in the 4140 section. There also is a difference between gas and diesel
throttle control linkages.
