Thrust rod

In the BMW Isetta, the push rod 5-050 transmits the movement of the accelerator pedal to the throttle actuator on the carburetor, thereby ensuring direct, mechanical control of engine power. As part of a restoration, it replaces bent or worn-out original rods, significantly reducing play and jerkiness in throttle response. Precise length adjustment and play-free joint connections are crucial for reliably achieving idle and full-throttle positions.
