Need small IP partss, truck down.. :-(

I need the spring and associated parts that help return the throttle to off position. Contacted Memphis Equipment and I'm told they are not available. The location of the parts is where the linkage shaft enters the IP. I understand there is a spring in there and other parts. These parst can come off a used IP but I would like to get all of them since it hasn't been apart..

Are you stuck on the road or just in need of them?

In need of the parts. Talked to Memphis Eqip. and they said to replace the pump. Pump works fine, just something inside the throttle shaft linkage is causing it to stick.

Note: I disconnected it completely and has to be moved from open/close throttle with some type of unnecessary force..

My IP has some oil seepage around it so I figure it wont be too many more years and I will be replacing/rebuilding my IP. A close friend of mine retired from a shop the rebuilt IP's, injectors, turbos and magnetos for diesel and stationary gas engines. They are a very well known shop here in Shreveport. Anyways I brought the issue up to him and showed him my IP. He said two things. Number one: Run her till she dies. Number 2: Parts for those injectors and pumps shouldn't be a big deal to get. In fact he used to rebuild American Bosch now AMBAC pumps and injectors. Pm me and I will give you their name and phone number.
