formariz 11,865 #1 Posted February 21 (edited) Finally installed new throttle cable yesterday. Due to the bulkiness of the new type cable it was not possible to install it in original place without doing some physical alterations on tractor. Since I have never been a fan of where it was located originally , obstructed by steering wheel ,I decided to fabricate a bracket and install it in a more conveniently accessible place. Removed old cable and in its place installed an additional light switch which was in an awkward spot already so everything worked out great. Throttle cable is an absolute pleasure. It’s a precision instrument. Smooth precise operation. Can be vernier adjusted with just index finger. Can be stopped anywhere in its travel and it stays put. Using red bypass button it can be immediately pulled out or pushed in. Entire unit can also be totally locked with large black knob which is a bit redundant since cable positively stays on any position left. Extremely well made with a vinyl covered metal jacket which in turn has a slippery thick plastic jacket inside through which cable runs smoothly. Not sensitive to tight turns like regular solid throttle cable is. Great large easy to use knobs. Worked perfectly on first try. Night to day performance compared to original type cable.

On other photo of left over cable cutoff a little mangled but you can see the 3 part cable sheath. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
