This listing is for a new reproduction Sunbeam Tiger accelerator (gas) pedal stop that we made exactly as the original. Many people don't even know this part exists. The illustration (poor) of it is in the "Tiger Workshop Manual" Section C, pg. 19 along with the description of how to use it to adjust your linkage. I became aware of it when I came upon an ebay listing for the stop. For the first two years of owning my Tiger, I was continually tightening the lever position adjustment bolt on the pedal, as it slipped repeatedly when I stepped too hard on the accelerator. Problem solved, I thought. Try and find one! Most were discarded during carpet changes and other modifications, and the rare times you found one on ebay it was usually rusty with prices going up to $100. 


This part is intended to limit gas pedal travel and relieve the tension on the throttle cable. It is constructed of the same material and has the exact same bends and measurements as the original. The rubber bumper stop is custom made as there was nothing available with the same dimensions. We turned the rubber stock and made it match exactly (even though you don't see it once installed). The metal is satin black powder coated so it will not rust and there are stainless steel fasteners provided to mount it. 

The first three pictures show the product, and the fourth is a picture of the stop installed in my other Tiger, which I am currently restoring. I covered it with white tape for the picture so it would  show up against the dark blue. There are two 10/32 hex nuts welded by the factory on the transmission tunnel to mount this. You should run a tap in the threads to clean them up if there's nothing installed there, as they will be rusty.     Thanks, Al

Nissan mulls Titan engine variations

Mon, 12 Apr 2010

Nissan engineers and designers are playing catch-up to create the next-generation full-sized Titan pickup, now that the project is back on their plate. A plan to develop the pickup jointly with Chrysler off the Dodge Ram collapsed last year. Now Nissan must make up for lost time.
