Hope everybody’s having a good weekend so far, the Fresno 914 needs a new clutch and accelerator cable, and I’m wondering if I can do these at the same time to avoid them getting tangled up? Could I use something like painters tape on the most forward part where they eventually need the pedal assembly to make it easier to thread them through the tunnel?
I did some searching and I found people talking about one or the other, but didn’t see anything about doing both at the same time. Thanks! |

Well that was interestingly difficult.
Cable came off easily once Noel and you all gave me some coaching but check out what happened to the tubes that the cables run through.  |

I see there is still a plastic (probably original) fuel line - serious fire potential. Most experienced advice is to replace them with stainless steel lines. |

Thank you Keith, I put you that on the list. Appreciate the eyes on it. Weird to think about how those tubes got bent - nothing else is out of place or damaged. |
