Title: Can I have a little Help please... Post by 23Skidoo on 02/06/12 at 04:36:55 Sorry I know wrong section but desperate.. My throttle cable snapped Friday on my 2002 LS. and I'm buggered if I can find a new replacement in the UK. All I can find is up to '96 and they don't look the same... Can anyone recommend a good US supplier..? And do I really have to remove the tank to replace as the petlock is stuck on.. well on and has a full tank lol.... Hope you don't mind my plea for help AJ |

Title: Re: Can I have a little Help please... Post by verslagen1 on 02/06/12 at 08:02:31 I've had both a '92 and a '02 and the throttle cables are the same. Our '86 to '88's have a screw in fitting on the control vs. the '95 and later have a plate that has a screw to hold the cable in. |

Title: Re: Can I have a little Help please... Post by verslagen1 on 02/06/12 at 14:41:24 I would think a local shop could point you to a place that made cables. And they could rethread a cable and flex housing onto throttle end fitting. |

I think I have some used stock cables. If you want one I'll send it just for the shipping cost. Holler and let me know ... |

Title: Re: Can I have a little Help please... Post by 23Skidoo on 02/07/12 at 01:05:23 Thanks for the help guys... I knew I could count on you for some support... I've got a few calls to make in the UK but if I get stuck I may take up Lancers kind offer.. I have paypal etc.. Walking is rubbish. :D I'll keep you all posted.. Again many thanks from the Garden of England.. |
Title: Re: Can I have a little Help please... Post by 23Skidoo on 02/08/12 at 00:37:34 Sorted, managed to get one in the UK. £35 British pounds sounded expensive but not going anywhere without one. Many thanks for the support and Lancers super kind offer.. It sometimes just helps being able to share a problem.. Cheers.. AJ |
