You may wish to review how the original system was supposed to work and drawings of all the parts there-in. Then consider how, with a legacy of long years of abuse and poor maintenance causing unwanted friction and maladjustment with the consequent "Idle Speed Hang-Up", people created the centre pull system to overcome those issues.

My TP has virtually none of these problems despite still carrying all of the original mechanical components. Yet when I took on the car at only seven years from new the mechanism was in a diabolical state but its AOK ever since.



If centre-pull is still manufactured you could try here.
