I screwed up... Broken IP.

Fortunately not on the truck I drive every day. I have an engine with so few hours on it that the paint still hasn't burned off the turbo or exhaust manifold. Problem is when I pulled the cab off of the truck we I was scrapping here I cut everything but somehow missed the throttle linkage so when I picked the cab up with the wrecker it broke the throttle shaft of of the pump! Man was I mad at myself! Still am!!!! Anyway, I've been cruising the TMs and cannot locate a good diagram that shows a breakdown of the IP so I can see what it takes to replace just the splined shaft. I know I'm not the only one that has run into this. IP gurus, what am I looking at here?

Gimp, that would be great! All I should need is the splined shaft that the throttle lever clamps onto. I'm hoping I can just take the round rear cover off of the pump and fish the shaft out from there. No idea what I'm up against though. Would be nice if I could do it without removing the pump from the engine as well, being as it isn't even in a truck anymore.

" but somehow missed the throttle linkage"

Don't feel too bad. Did the exact same thing on a 925 A2 Sunday. Caught it before any damage though.

The bad part is that I cut the hand throttle cable. What happened was I got a call and had to run off and when I came back I was in a hurry. Loosing daylight.
Floridianson, will let you know. Appreciate the offer.

It appears from the TM that Rayzer posted that the throttle shaft comes out with the spring, spring plate, and retainer all in one assembly with just the removal of the four screws. Can you guys verify this? I don't want to pull it apart until I have replacement parts in hand because the engine is outside.

Remove the fdc so you can see down in there, the shaft assembly should pull right out with the removal of the idle adjustment screw and 4 plate screws.uploadfromtaptalk1414586665596.jpg
