Mine has the same catch point. Not certain the purpose - but I had to remove the cables and replace when I re-powered. Working with the throttle/shifter was challenging - but that catch/notch mechanism was built into the throttle. Still have same feeling with new engine.

Our 30 mk1 with engine controls on the cockpit side, has a throttle detent/notch you can feel as you push it forward.
Anyone else have this?
If so, what is the purpose?
The cable is out of adjustment. I am going to adjust the cable and wonder if that detent is to meant to be "startup" position or what.
I would assume if it is meant to be a start position that there is a recommended carb linkage position to match that detent at the throttle lever
Cheers!
