Another fix by macyver on his rx7
I just broke my carter pin on the bottom of my throttle arm to the omp, i replaced it with a paper clip and its working fine. I don't know how long it will last , I think i need to find something better.

i use bare wire when in a bind, just make sure you have the little washer on there, until you can get a proper cotterpin from autozone.

That's good for temp but I would definitely get the right washer/pin combo/ The OMP is too important of a system to rig on.

Had poor idle, then adjusted a screw. Is it the fix?
