Removing auto throttle cam
Ok, I got the nut off the top of the throttle cam... but it looks like the cam itself is threaded on too... And no way to spin it.
How do I get this bugger off? I need to replace it with a manual one.
Thanks!

The term "auto throttle cam" might be confusing people You mean the thing the throttle cable wraps around? 
That's not auto or manual, it's just a cam! Once the nut is off, the cam pulls straight up off the shaft. It won't spin b/c the shaft is not round. Just pull straight up.

It is called a throttle cam though... and my auto one is different than the manual one in the picture.
Anyway, thanks for the info, I'll pull it off tomorrow.
