[QUOTE="Whistler, post: 640218, member: 18919"] Hello all, Yesterday I fitted Butty's Bits throttle linkage, the whole thing including the rod through the chassis section. All fine, however when I tightened up the bolt on the bell crank linkage I must have done it up to right and the threaded section (which isn't used as it was too long) snapped at the bolt. Now, I think it will work but I am trying to find a replacement today as I need to be at the garage tomorrow for 8am so a next day delivery won't help. It is holding, when I operate the throttle it does work, but I am assuming the bolt is right at the end of the cable so it could just be strands that is holding it on. I tried Euro car parts but I assume my current cable is older than the chap I spoke to and was no help. I am in Herne Bay which is North Kent coast. Any one know of a fix or something I can get from Euro, Jayar, GSF etc as I have all of them near me in a driveable distance. Or, is there no worry for the short term? [/QUOTE]
