Is there any certain route the throttle cable should go?
Mine snaped other day, fitting new one 2mo so thought should atleast check its routed correctly

There are two routes depending on whether you have the older or new carb brackets.
Does this look right, comes under the boost hose, hangs above turbo, then to bracket, then into carb bit
looks about right but i cannot remember mine hovering above the turbo
Hey James,
From memory the throttle cable on my car comes through the bulkhead then over the exhaust & then up the front of the scuttle panel to the carb.
Kinda like this?
You want to pull the HT lead further back into the scuttle panel area so it doesn't get tangled in the carb area.
steve you got the same oe cable as me,the one with the 'ribbed'
for your throttle pleasure...,all you get now is the universal
cable kit i think?
Gttjames, your cable isn't routed right it should be tucked up against the bulkhead out the way of the engine just like Big Steve Raiders.
The kit they sell now is a universal one, thing with this kit is you can make it as long or as short as you want so when you put it on route it nicely with no kinks and trim it to a nice left so it doesn't have loads of excess lying over the engine bay.
bollocks, done it now. No kinks in cable, but is how it was routed before, ill get another end and re-do it soon so its out the way
