G'day

After having the BN3s engine out and in twice, it's time to correctly adjus=
t the overdrive throttle switch.

I seem to remember that there was a technical article on this in one of the=
 two main US Austin-Healey magazines a little time back.

Yes I know it's in the workshop manual, but that assumes the reader has at =
least half a brain.

Would anyone have access to the article they could send me please.
