Accelerator Cable for Dual Carbs ? Options

[cary]

In putting Mark's engine back in and replacing the broken accelerator cable. It seems the cable isn't quite long enough to work/fit correctly. In the FI arrangement the cable crosses the engine at 45 degrees. In dual carbs it needs to come at the bar at 90 degrees. Which pulls the bowden out of the firewall. Which will allow water down the cable tube.

What have others done to work around this ?

WTF


SA-914 That bellcrank linkage geometry is ALL WRONG. Throw it in the trash!!

It's no wonder your having problems with cable length, the mount bracket is god awful and all wrong.
The binding is also because your running the cable out of stock lay-out.

The angle is completely wrong on the cable connection bracket and the arm doesn't look the right length either.

Throw it in the trash and make a new one, it will make a dog of a driving experience if left like that.

I've just posted a "bonus" how to. It's in my Build-off Challenge thread here:

(there's no point telling a guy to throw something in the trash if you can't help him sort out the problem!)
