before you pull the cable out of the tunnel, tie on a string, pull it out at the firewall with the string attached . . . use the string to pull the new cable back in with. . Point being, it's easy to get it wrapped around the clutch cable if you just shove it back in. . . If it gets wrapped around the clutch cable, the throttle will pull each time you step on the clutch. .
