Well here's the deal...the red plastic piece on my throttle cable is/was really brittle, and a piece had broken off it previously so the cable would bind up sometimes and I couldn't get full throttle. So, in my infinite wisdom I decided to mess with it and I think I made it worse. See below:
Now there's nothing supporting the spring...so that's all screwed up, and I cut the end of the plastic stuff off the cable sheath not realizing there was the braided cable under it, so it's also hanging up in the spring. Oi Now it binds up really bad and I can't get full throttle.
I tried to put a little plastic piece in there to cover the end of the sheath but it just gets stuck up inside of what's left of the red plastic piece there. If I could just get something in there to support the spring I think I'd be OK but I'm not sure. Is there anything I can do short of replacing the cable?
And, if that's my best option...does anybody have a throttle cable they could sell me relatively cheap?
