Hi Ralph,

 

I saw those, but mine has the ball attached to the end of the cable not a
socket that attaches to a ball.

 

Thanks for replying.

My diesel seems to have a ball socket end that attaches to the ball on the
end of throttle arm on injection pump. Did you look at the diesel ones??

Looking for a throttle cable for my Eurovan/Audi powered Vanagon.  The
engine side of the cable has a "ball" end that attaches to the throttle
bellcrank and has an adjustable strain relief anchor.  Can't seem to find a
cable that looks like this in the usual sites; Go Westy (Go Westy Parts),
Van Caf�, Airhead Parts, Bus Depot, Vanagain.

Here's a couple pictures: http://tinyurl.com/czbdxaf

The cable covering melted during my engine fire.  Fortunately for me the PO
had a spare cable under the rear seat, but I would like to keep a spare
around.

Any ideas where to get one of these?

Thanks.
