About a cable and tanks...

1)
Had a sticky throttle cable, and did order me a new one at one of the vendors. Received a nice cable with an as nice spring. After all, the carburator side of my throttle cable, is a cable.

To my surprise, only little of the cable is a real cable, as there is a tube going through the firewall up to the throttle pedal. Exit new cable, and made me my own by use of a cable initially meant for one of my Alfa Romeo’s. Is this tube something only pushbuttons have?

2)
Those water tanks… Not that I current l have troubles with mine, but… My pressure tank has a 4th connection for a sensor (what kind of sensor btw?), and if I look around at what the vendors offer, I not longer see a place to put that sensor – where does the sensor go then?

As for the overflow tank, mine is not bigger than the pressure tank, but all I see are overflow tanks twice as big as mine. Is that something unique for pushbuttons, and if so, why suddenly a that big overflow tank (compared to mine)? And why two tanks, as all of the engine cooling systems I’ve seen so far, only use a single tank – what’s so different about a Pantera’s cooling system?

Can someone shed some light on these issues, currently a mystery to me…

Thanks,
Kid.
