 Very high tech! Ska Man uses a Post Office elastic band. I was thinking maybe a strip of sprung steel bolted behind the operating arm on the carb, with a couple of holes drilled in the appropriate places, so that the lever pops into the holes as you pull it up.

That's an idea. I'll have a look at the gamekeeper's quads on the estate.

 One of my old Moggies had one. An ex Police Panda Car. Maybe clothes pegs were standard fittings?
