Hi I am new around here. I own a 1972 914 2.0 with dual weber carbs, monza exhaust, and a few other bits and pieces here and there. My throttle cable was rerouted by the guy who did the carb conversion so it basically is lower than anything else under the car. I think its got a hole in it and some kind of grime has got in to it because the gas pedal is really sticky now. An example would be I press down the gas to accelerate and then when I clutch to shift, the revs go way up and to "un-stick" the gas requires a throttle blip. I try to do all the work on this car myself but I finally broke down and took it to my normal mechanic (he works on my 99 Audi A4) and he told me he couldnt do anythign about it because of how the cable was rerouted because of the carb job. Does anybody know of a fix that wouldnt require replacing the cable?

Eric_Shea Sounds like it simply needs to be done right.
