I have a 1980 CJ 5 with a 6/258 motor with a Carter carb and I need the clip that holds the linkage to the carb , the clip snaps around the linkage rod and the carb and the petal snap into the clip . Can anyone help ? I know this clip has to be out there somewhere but Jeep doesn't seem to care about any thing over 15 years old.

make a double loop in the middle of a paperclip, use a small zip tie to secure the ends to the rod....
or slip a vacuum hose over the linkage rod and slide it up over the clip ends to secure it..

some auto parts stores have the clips
