Ok. It was my turn to break down.
The throttle cable broke.
I was able to crank up the idle and limp to work.

Looking to buy new cable, so I can get back on the road.
914Rubber is sold out. Where can I buy a new one (for carbureted car with X-bar linkage).

Auto Atlanta might have them, but with them you never know when to expect the parts.
