If not broken, use old cables to pull in the new ones. And like the Cap'n said.

Paul,
Might be helpful for those of us who are getting ready to do the same and have never done it before if you list the main steps and do/dont's. I've never done it myself, and would prolly learn something from your experience Jim |

if the cable binds while threading it to the front bulkead, rotate the cable end as if were a drill bit; push forward while rotating. do these actions at the same time will make the cable "drill forward". this technique sure did help me when my accelerator cable seemed to refuse to move forward.
