Reply to "Throttle Cable Problem"

The cable will bind if there is a bend or a kink in the tube that is under the spring near the carb.

You need to be carefull not to bend it when you are threading it through the holder that bolts to the intake manifold and when you are hooking it up to the carb itself.

It is easy to bend but impossible to straiten out again.

On the Weber set up I disassemble the cable on the carb end, remove the spring temporarily then cut the tube out with a tubing cutter.

Then replace the spring and reassemble the end of the cable.

This frees up the cable inside the tube, makes the assembly flexible so it doesn't bind.

I have a feeling that maybe this is what you will wind up needing to do.

You can't get the kink out of that tube once it is there. You will need to remove the tube from the assembly or replace the entire assembly with another one.
