I purchased a heater cable from Stoddard's a while back and it is to short. The car is a 76 but has early heat exchangers and parts. What is the correct part? I s there two different lengths?

If you have trouble getting the cable end through the firewall tube:
- Spray some lube in the metal tube - Round the end of the cable end with a file or grinder. This will keep it from hanging up in the tube. Open up the radius of the metal tube by inserting a Phillips screwdriver and bending the tube. Do this gently and just a little bit. |
