Hi Jim,

When I did my 1.8 Jetta inline - for diesel 82 I used control line model
airplane cable. Its cheap and readily available. Its is twisted stainless
with ends, or you can get it without ends. I used the endless type, and cut
a 1/2 in of 1/8 copper tubing sleeve, and looped the loose end through, I
soldered and crimped the sleeve. (no I don't wear a belt and suspenders,
just making sure) This stuff is very strong and being stainless will not
rust.
