throttle linkage

[O'l geezer]

Does anyone of a kit to replace the cable and go to a solid linkage, or is the cable type good enough. Have heard of cables freezing up.
Thanks, Bob

I am adressing the same problem.Will order a Lokar cable tomorrow and see if that cures my problem:hello2:

Ive had Lokar cables for a year now with no complaints

I think the MP Six Pack/6-BBL specific cable is slightly beefier, than the single 4 bbl cable, it may hold up better, I haven't ever broke one yet but have heard of other people having an issue, I always lube mine up as much as I can soaking the cable with WD-40 or also tried Graphite spray &/or Silicone Spray lubricant may also work, forced into both ends before installing it, seems to work great so far...

Lokar cable solves alot of problems.For the $30 it is a no brainer.The cable and the cover is stainless.The cover is teflon lined.It also comes with a couple of end adapters.My first cable I bought in 1998 still going strong.

Just installed both cables on my engine...let me give you a heads up....if you install the throttle cable you will have to install the kick down cable if you running an automatic with anything other than a full manual valve body.
