Best throttle cable.

[Richard McLaughlin]

I broke my old throttle cable last year (carb had a strong spring on it just to drive car home after I bought it and it snapped).

I ordered a throttle cable from pgclassics but that one mal-functioned tonight.

Anyone know any good brands of throttle cables for the a body 74 Duster?

Guy looking at my pgclassic cable tonight said it was made bad.

Thanks
Richard

The ones I've picked up at Autozone always seem to work fine.

Would this work?:
Say universal. It is 24". Last one I got was 19" made for the a body duster.
Will this one work?

Yes, the 24' Lokar will work. They also make one with the black vinyl cable that looks closer to stock. That's the one I went with.

Ok. I just ordered this one.
Just as good as the silver braided one?

 

[440DART1970]

Same thing just a little cheaper you either get Teflon covered or steel braided

 

[440DART1970]

Not to rub it in but probably cheaper less shipping you could have got a stainless steel braided one on eBay. Always get your part numbers and then check eBay prices are always cheaper and shipping is usually free

Look at this on eBay Lokar Universal 24" Stainless Steel Braided Throttle Cable TC-1000HT | eBay

I actually ordered from a local parts store.

I'm in Canada. I find eBay very slow for me sometimes.
