[QUOTE="milfredo, post: 636068, member: 32628"] Long story shortened... Original throttle cable never reached the carb arm with with any room for adjustment and if pulled with pliers, would not let the carb off the throttle. I was convinced it was an incorrect cable so I installed a new one (well two as I kinked the first one). Worst job ever with the engine in a you are all alone under the van... Anyway, the new cable is just as short as the old one and the old one didn't look remotely old. I have a Butty Bits linkage at the front with the adjuster wound all the way in so it touch the floor of the cab. No room for adjustment there! Ideally, I need two to three more centimetres on the cable to adjust it properly, what can I do? (please don't say install another cable!) [ATTACH type="full"]4533[/ATTACH] no slack to get it though and get the bolt correctly tight! [/QUOTE]
