frayed throttle cable...

[DavidT]

I don't know how I did it, but I was able to fray the throttle cable sometime during the removal and reinstall of the intake.
It is right at the edge of the rubber boot (relaxed). If I rotate the linkage by hand, it really doesn't want to return. I smoothed the edges as best as I could with my fingers and pliers.
Upon operating with the pedal, it seems fine... no sticking, etc...
My only worry is that over time, could it stick at WOT?
If it IS a hazard, where can I find a cable... new or used?

I don't see why it would stick. But hey it gives you a reason to speed! Even if it did shouldn't u be able to quickly push in the clutch and turn it off then slow down? lol Just go to any auto parts store and they should have a new one.

Hazard? Absolutely!
I wouldn't drive that one up the driveway.
