Reply to "Throttle Cable Problem"

panteradougMember

Both good advice BUT it involves taking the car apart to get a new cable in.

Checking to see if there is a kink in the tube and cutting it back all can be done in the car without taking it out.

Pulling it out is definitely high on the PITA list.

The console has to come out, foot box cover, the engine cover removed, engine screen, etc, etc, etc!

Why the tube is in the assembly isn't clear to me. It certainly is not necessary. It definitely is a hindrance to the assembly installation AND it works really light and free without it.

I'll bet you that a very high percentage of these original throttle assemblies judged to need replacing will work just fine without the tube.

It is not a difficult modification to do.
