I installed a new accelerator cable after rolling over the old one and breaking it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) When installing the new one I broke it at the firewall (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (cheaper construction that the old one). Seems like it would be an easy job but I've already proven that wrong. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif) Is there a specific way to install this so I don't break the replacement?

Return the defective cable.
I had this happen to me. The crimped flange on the cable fell off as I was installing it. The supplier replaced it without cost (they didn't even want the old one back). The replacement (same make and manufacturer) was much better (still is). When did you buy your cable? I am guessing that there may have been a bad batch just over a year ago. Just my $0.02 |
