Thanks Mikey!
I purchased one of these hand throttles last Summer and installed it in my 914-6conversion this past weekend. Install went smoothly.
My 2.4L CIS engine is an early one out of a 1973.5 911T, which was not equipped with an Auxillary Air Regulator the later CIS injected 911s got. If I remember correctly, 1973 911s also came with hand throttles.
To start the cold CIS engine now: depress throttle pedal slightly, pull back new hand throttle lever, release throttle pedal, turn ignition key and neet neet VROOOM!, and now the cold engine idles by itself without stalling
.
I have since retired the very finely crafted wood block to the wood stove.
The block that I used to place between the throttle & brake pedals after start up to hold the engine at high-idle, for the past 28 years.
