I had a similar failure on my Ur-Q ... didn't have any tools with me so I
ended up putting two pennies between the throttle lever and stop, and drove
it home at 35mph in 4th gear.  No fun at all...  :^)

To answer your question: Yes, on my car, there were snap-rings holding the
rubber bits in place.  As I recall, getting everything installed properly
was a PITA due to the lack of room in there.
