The throttle assembly on my 16 is screwed into the padded panel backing (which appears to be pressed board). The PO must have overtightened the screws to the point where they no longer hold fast. In fact, the throttle assembly moves around when I move the handle and three of the scrcews don't do anything. I jerry rigged using bolts/nuts and large diameter washers but I'd rather remove the padded panel and install a steel backing plate. I can't figure out how to remove the panel, though. Can any one help?
TIA, John C
