Still R-70:
Eratic throttle

Hi.
My forlklift will not stay at the same speed.
When not moving along the truck is fine and revs properly but when moving around it speeds up and slows down as if lifting my foot off the pedal.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

Many thanks.
Justin

Hi,
I havent got a clue.
But that sounds like the sort of thing that would cause this kind of problem.
The engine runs sweet and revs fin when lifting and ticks over perfectly.
Its just when moving the truck.

Is the truck equipped with a speed sensor bearing as the R60?
