Subject:How do you unfreeze a throttle cable?
From:David Marshall

Volks,
I sold my Syncro Turbo Diesel to a nice couple in Victoria.  I got the van
detailed and when they cleaned the motor some water got into the throttle
cable.  Seeing how it is below freezing outside the throttle will now stick.
Any idea on an easy way of getting this out?  I don't want the customer to
experience a stuck throttle on their way home (or ever really).

Help!
