mk2 golf GTI throttle cable Empty
PostSubject: mk2 golf GTI throttle cable   mk2 golf GTI throttle cable EmptyTue Jan 15, 2008 11:45 am

on our way back from donny the other night The end of the cable at the pedal end came off. It went back on ok but it keeps coming off! Am not sure if a piece is missing! the hooked end goes through a rubber grommet type thing which fits in turn through a circular hole on the pedal mechanism. There is no cap or anything to keep the cable in this grommet and that is the problem! anyone who might have an idea as to why this keeps happening please share
Any help would be appreciated?

My carbed CL did that, I found there was no slack in the cable so it was getting full throttle before the pedal was near the floor. A quick adjustment and it was sorted!
