It's been awhile since the throttle cable has been disconnected.....the Haynes book is useless.....does anyone have a reasonable image to show how the throttle cable hooks up (it's a 1.8, if that matters)...some say barrel nut , but there never was one????

1.8
throttle cable comes up from below the engine through the passenger side cylinder head tin. there is a hole close to the firewall that the throttle cable fits up through, remember the grommet. From there, it runs diagonally straight towards the throttle body. It gets bolted down to the plenum in a notch so the body of the cable does not move...that is what the threaded end it for. From there the male end of the cable fits into the barrel nut shown above which is in the throttle body housing arm. there is a spring return that goes to the engine sheetmetal on the tranny...there is a small hole...
