So I am finally getting close to the finish line of the work and getting ready to get the car back on the road after the winter here in Quebec, Canada.

Last thing I did was replacing the pedal set with a rebuilt set from Mr. Stone. Everything is fine with the clutch and brake, but my accelerator cable does not stay attached. The ball socket goes very easily on the new ball on the rebuilt pedal set so my guess on the culprit would be that the ball socket on the end of the accelerator cable would need to be replaced.

Should I look elsewhere?

Below is what I think should be replaced.

Thanks

Reach out to Bruce @bdstone914 and he will let you know what to use.
I am not sure if it was for the accelerator cable, but a 911 piece there with a springclip is safer to use than the stock 914 part.
Something simple is going on in your setup and shouild easily be fixed.
I believe he is at Carlisle so he may not answer immediately...

Good luck! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
