throttle cable

[tonyedge]

Hi does anybody out there know where I could get a new throttle cable for a 2001 tuscan ? Only driven 5 miles in it after buying and it snapped 😢

I once had one snap. Replaced it with a TVR Power uprated cable. That one has been on the car 8 years and still going strong (not got the car anymore but know its still on there)

Got mine from Str8six last year - £30 + vat

There is a revised bracket, just make sure that is fitted, it also helps to bend it up slightly.

The uprated cables have a small ptfe tube on the end to help stop the cable chaffing, look for that. As a bit of a tip also keep an electric choc box connector handy, cut off the insulation and then you can screw it on to the end of the broken cable, readjust the throttles and get home. ( I have done this and it did last for ages)
