<VV> what is it?/return spring

[HallGrenn at aol.com]

...............and if the previous owner added the extra return spring you  
probably have a rusty/frayed accelerator cable that is binding and should 
be  lubed or replaced.

Right,  Bryan. W could be any year of 61 to 64 FC PG engine, except Bruce
already  gave us the 64 clue. That is, if no one changed the  engine
previously!

So, the new engine has the late 61 to 65 FC  throttle linkage crossshaft,
where the accelerator cable exits the firewall  in line with the crosshaft.

Bruce, you might have an early 61 where the  accelerator linkage is attached
to the transmission, just like the cars of  every year.

As Bob says, use the stuff from your original installation  if it worked
fine for you. In any case, you will need the TV rod  (accelerator rod from
transmission to crosshaft) installed in order to  downshift the PG.
