John,
I had the same problem. I made a couple of sliders that fit on the
firewall that allow the end of the cable to move up and down with
throttle movement. It's now acceptable.
Also on a different subject, which caused me a lot of lost time, when
you get to the point of making up the oil cooler hoses. I followed the
instructions on the Jabiru web site, except after cutting the hose with
a Dremel cut off wheel I put a hose clamp around the line about 1/8"
back. Then with the with Dremel tool very slightly radius the end so no
burrs are sticking out. Put the threaded end in a vise so that it will
not move when you push on it. Have a 1/4" nut driver handy so that you
can work the hose clamp with one hand while you push with the other.
Push the hose in the 1/8" and while holding, move the hose clamp back
another 1/8" and retighten. A couple of repeats and it is in in a matter
of minutes.

Subject: Jab Dual Throttle Setup issue
I just got my dual throttle setup installed per the Jabiru USA
instructions and have an issue with the roughness in throttle movement
when the throttles are firewalled. The throttle cable has to bend when
its firewalled as the arms on the bar mounted on the firewall shelf tilt
down in this position and this causes alot of stiffness and roughness
when pushing the throttles that far in. I havent hooked up the middle
cable to the carby yet so this friction is just from the two throttle
cables.
Any suggestions for improving the movement here ? Can I just grease the
cables ?
Thanks,
John Davis
