Changing throttle cable - how easy?

Post by Rob Furniss »

How easy/difficult is it to replace the throttle cable and does anyone know what the length is?
I've extended mine for the supercharger (throttle body is further away and round a bend sort of) but it feels a bit gratey even though it's in plastic tubing.

Shouldnt bee too difficuly from the throttle body end at all, and shouldnt be too much trouble after that, i assume you would have to take the drivers splash guard off, simply unhook it from the pedal and thread it through the hole.
