One of the rivets on the throttle linkage broke. So I pulled it off thinking that all I needed to do was to put in a new rivet. To my surprise, I found the holes on the bracket that bolts to the firewall was 1/4" and the on the cross bar between the bracket and the carburetor and the small metal piece are 1/8". To help clarify the situation, the hole size on both outside pieces is 1/8" and the interior hole is 1/4". I did not find any bushing that goes in the larger hole so this would seem to indicate that the cross bar could rock up and down on the bracket. Is this what is really happening by design or am I missing something?
