position causes the fuel pump control arm to make contact with the fuel pump control-arm
stops on both sides of travel.
(b) Ensure the mixture control lever is only limited by the fuel pump control-arm stop and has
positive clearance to the console slot in both the full forward and full aft positions.
(c) Upon adjustment completion, tighten jam nuts. Verify minimum rod-end thread engage-
ment of 0.312 inch (0.79 cm). Install cotter pins to rod-end bearing nuts.
