#32 Throttle Pulley Cover

There is a big plastic cover over the throttle pulley, held in place by a single screw.

The original sheet metal screw had been replaced by some fine thread machine screw somewhere along the way.  It was undersized so wasn’t holding the cover on securely, not to mention looked wrong.

Ordered a new screw and installed the cover properly.  Had to re-form the proper threads just a bit after having the wrong screw installed previously.

Much better now:

Wrong screw and correct screw shown laying on top for comparison.
