Description

12-1217 OEM Tillotson Throttle Lever Assembly – Fits HW Avenger Carburetors


The Tillotson 12-1217 Throttle Lever Assembly is a genuine OEM replacement part designed specifically for HW-series Tillotson carburetors, including the popular HW Avenger series.


This lever assembly bolts directly onto the carburetor’s throttle shaft and includes a built-in swivel with a set screw to secure the throttle cable in place. Unlike the 12-1218 model, which uses a pocket to hold the ball end of the cable, the 12-1217 is ideal for setups requiring positive cable retention via a clamping set screw—common in racing or high-vibration applications.


Product Features:

  • Genuine Tillotson OEM part – Part #12-1217
  • Designed for HW-series Tillotson carburetors
  • Fits HW Avenger carburetor models
  • Includes throttle arm and swivel
  • Set screw-style cable retention (not ball-end style)
  • Bolts directly onto the carburetor throttle shaft
  • Durable construction for karting, small engine, or performance use


Note on Compatibility:

This part uses a set screw to secure the throttle cable, not a cable pocket. If your setup requires a pocket-style lever, refer to Tillotson Part #12-1218 instead.
