Carb linkage adjustment
Engine is in and almost ready to start. Can someone tell me how to adjust the bell crank that the throttle rod and kick down rod attach to. This is the one that bolts to the intake not the rear one on the head. It has a slotted piece with a set screw that it stops against. It is 3 duce set up if it matters. My Chilton book doesn't show anything. Pic might also be helpful. Thanks to all again.

I can't help much on the picture or description of adjustment but if this is a J2 setup most of the adjustment would be on the center carb. The for and aft carbs are vacuum actuated to a large extent. If this is a progressive set up I have no idea..... Tedd

It isn't covered in the 1957 Oldsmobile Shop Manual. Look in the 1958 Oldsmobile Shop Manual, pages 8-62 through 8-67. There is text, diagrams, & several photos.
It seems like it was covered in some other GM publications, but I don't have them.

carb linkage adjustment
Here is a pic of the part I need to know how to adjust. Don't really see why they put a stop screw here as there is a idle screw on the center carb. Also there is a spring I have that goes on this bell crank. The top of it goes in a hole. Does the bottom hook on the pin that the accelerator rod goes on? Am I missing something else?
