Chuck (or anyone who can answer this),
Where can i get a replacement cable for your EFI throttle cable? I'm talking about the thin gauge aircraft cable that is inside the sheething? Also, how long is the original EFI cable that came with it? After getting it all set up and trimming the calbe down to the right size, i have realized that i've made it TOO SHORT!?! Where can i get a replacement? I don't want to have to buy the whole efi throttle cable again!

thanks

Luke

I don't know if this will work for EFI but when my cable broke on my carbed motor I just took the inner cable from a bicycle brake cable and it's lasted over 2 yrs now.

O'riely's has universal gas cables that you can use... and the cable from bike brake lines are the same type of cable...

I called earlier this spring for a replacement cable and BCB told me I had to buy the complete set up. They do not have just a cable or inner cable available. :( So as of right now I am running on luck should I have any problems with my 7 year old cable.

You can shorten the sheething or you can find the inner cable at most hardware stores.

That's pretty clever! Good idea!
