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????

Remove the access panel right of the accel pedal, and using a thin 8mm ignition wrench, snap the ball cup end off the bell crank, remove the ball cup end and jamb nut (otherwise the cable won't pull back through the tube), and the famous words from the Haynes manual "assembly is reverse of dissasembly" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
I always check the cable with an inspection mirror and flashlight (through the access panel) to make sure it didn't go someplace it shouldn't (wrapped around the clutch cable). |
