You are also missing the spring that goes between the throttle stud on the carb and the tp of the kickdown rod. The spring is supposed to keep the rod pulled up so the arm of the kickdown linkage with the bolt through it is pulled forward against the throttle stud on the carb. Hard to describe without a picture. Best picture I can find of a correctly assembled Super Six kickdown lnkage with all the springs: |

Yes the circled one. The kick down linkage should follow throttle all the time. Your kick down linkage is not moving until the pin on carb is hitting the nut and bolt. Just under that circle is a pivot arm pointing 90 degrees from vertical at curb idle it should be almost straight up. Some thing wrong at transmission, maybe wrong throttle lever. |

I'm not seeing a spring in the yellow circle. Upon closer inspection, it appears that someone reused the one-barrel kickdown rod and hoked it to the two barrel bracket and U clip that bolts to the exhaust manifold. That is fine and can be made to work. That is what I did on my 76 D100. The catch is that it puts the kickdown rod in a different position than does the Super Six kickdown rod and you have to make sure that the linkage is all adjusted properly. |

If you squint, and look at the 7 o'clock position of the yellow circle the hook that I attached to the throttle stud is there. Ironically it seemed to shift from first to second ok but it would act like it was in neutral when accelerating in third. Upon inspection I found it low on fluid. Hopefully topping it off will cure that issue. It didn't smell burnt but wasn't enough on the stick to see the color.

FYI- I can't recall if it was mentioned elsewhere, but that is a V-8 choke linkage piece. |

Yes, you posted the link for the fix I just haven't made it yet.
