Subject:      Throttle cable sticking open
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Hello All-

My 88 Westy has been in the garage for the past couple months while I am detailing and preparing her for market. I have only started it a couple times during this time, and lately the throttle cable has been sticking open. This is a newly installed cable and after I did the installation this summer it made an amazing difference. The old one ha been doing the same thing before I changed it out. Now I am wondering if maybe the old one (I think it was probably the original) wasn't bad after all. Is there something that it might be getting hung-up on between the pedal and the throttle in the engine bay?

Thanks,

Scott K.
