[QUOTE="JL8Jeff, post: 388075, member: 12995"] There's a bolt that goes through and holds the throttle arm to the box, it sounds like yours might be coming out. The grip handle can be replaced individually, I did that on mine. The throttle stiffness can be adjusted by the plastic knob on the front, but it might be the grease inside has dried up over time. You can take it apart, clean everything, re-grease it and you should be good. Just take a picture of the position of all the cables, wires, etc. so you know how it goes back together. [/QUOTE]
