Did you have to rejig the linkage or cable setup?

If so.....

On my first incarnation of linkage setup, I passed the cable through
the firewall and secured there.  FAIL.   ;)    It would be "jerky" and
touchy at low speeds (parking lots and the like)

The cable has to be secured to the drivetrain.
