Maverick Spark

[ted johnson]

We ran maverick for years. It worked fine. For some reason it was never happy on the open 101's, but worked well on all the early engines, and on the '91. My Pop decided the wires from the steering wheel to the engine were too long, so he developed a cam-operated microswitch and worked it off the carb throttle arm. It had a detent on the throttle pedal to let him know when he was at full throttle but not in maverick. I was gonna attach a pic of Charlie Craibe's Scorpion/Mc30 showing the switch, but I guess I've exceeded my allotment of space. Ted
