    Help!

    Throttle cable needed ASAP. Car is s50 swapped. Who has one? I'm on the side of I5 right with a perfectly running car that can't accelerate.
    Need a part? PM me.

    I did mine earlier in the month by myself.

    Easy job, just dont yank on the think, or it will be like mine and the plastic sheath will pull out of the nipple.

      Can you run a shoelace to the inside of your car from the throttle and control it that way somehow? I've heard of people doing that. Like control it through the window.

          For real, it can get you home. Also you can use an electrical butt connector if there is cable on both sides of the break.

            Do this. Pull both laces and tie them together, pop the hood open and leave it, roll down the window, control throttle with your hand.

              I've seen this in person, worked great!

                Air craft cable until the new e34 m50 cable gets in.

                    Is it hollow aircraft cable?
