Abstract
A control system for a vehicle in which a vehicle operator in a first location manually turns a twist grip in one direction to exert a force on and displace an oil column in a conduit tracing a long and tortuous path to an engine throttle remotely located from the twist grip to set the throttle valve at an infinite number of positions. When the twist grip is manually turned in an opposite direction, a spring effects return of the throttle valve and the system toward a closed throttle position.
