And the set screw holding it in the pedal is seized :break

If I can't get the gawd darn set screw out of the pedal assm :break

that holds the cable in, I may need a pedal assm. :banghead

Got any purple ones Shue

I was looking the way the 11 ft'r was routed and it was pretty direct, the 16ft'r might actual be a cleaner set up. We'll see soon enough I guess.

That's common as can be, don't know why they don't use stainless set screws on those!. :beat

I alwys have to use some penetrant and put some heat to it, that loosens them right up!.. :good

Got the cable yesterday Gary, thanks again :beer

It is a tad long but useable just ran it past the motor a bit and up against the motor stringer then up to the carb. Can't beat the price

Had to drill and tap the gas pedal to a 1/4 set screw but it's all done. Another thing is man was my cable binding this one moves like butter :jumpie

know wonder I was getting cramps in my right leg on long runs.

Get this thing back together :break

I'm ready to hit the water :beer

I could use a set, and get rid of my old crappy Teleflex's.

I'm in Mooch Mode.

Either that or I'll Broker them for you guys on Ebay or I also have a few Liquidation auction sites I use also :beer

Yeah you wouldn't want to sell anything that wasn't working correctly. I'd be happy to donate my boat for testing procedures and in turn give a full product report back :comp
