Chris,
This is a pic of the parts book (scanner on the fritz) from your tractor, the green side-mount headlight YM1700

Roger, anything is possible - this Yanny had been rode hard and put away wet before I paid too much for it. Unfortunately it is about 4 hours away, and it will be another week or so before I get to go play with it again. I've looked at some of the throttle pix in this thread, so I will see if anything has been removed from that region (also, I couldn't locate a thermostart bowl, so I don't think I have that either).

Bob, don't look too hard at those pictures of the 1700's foot throttle in order to compare them with your YM155D. The US models had a completely different type of foot throttle parts and mounting. It tucked in much closer to the floorboard and pivoted inside a bushed bracket that was bolted to the underside of the floorboard.
The parts book lists both the thermostart and the foot throttle as optional systems, but according to the adv literature both were always included on the US models.
Both were available as kits.....and might still be for all I know. One of the dealers could probably get you a price. The throttle kit is #794340-01450.

Nice pic. My hand throttle is set up a little differed\nt than that... but the post is unmistakebly for a foot throtte.

Question.. do you push to kill, and pullto throttle up?

The 1110d that I'm looking at does not have one, but the nub is there for one. Question: if I got the parts used, could the linkage be reversed so that it becomes a declerator? A decelerator would be much more useful than an acclerator. Think about it: you set your rpms for the task, when you get to the end of the row, you stab the declerator to slow down and turn. Theoretically, it would be as simple as reversing some linkage at a pivot point.
