Yes, I bushed a butterfly shaft bore with a brass bushing and it
worked perfectly.

Got my gravely rebuild all finished today. Engine runs fairly smooth,
carb. leaks at idle. So, I ordered a rebuild kit as a new carb. is
over $100.

I can see the bushings the throttle butterfly shaft rides in is all
