Today while routing the throttle cable to our Airflow Performance servo, we just couldn't find any way the stock cable could be long enough. We have a vertical draft induction. After double and triple checking all positions were correct, we ordered a new cable from Van's. The throttle cable for the RV-7 is 3" longer (50.5") than the throttle cable for the RV-10 (47.5"). Has anyone else had this issue, am I missing something?

The next step is to route the cable to operate the fuel purge valve located on the top of the engine. I would appreciate seeing how others routed and connected this cable. Pictures would be very helpful.... I will most likely add a spring return to this control that would hold the valve open if the cable were to fail.

Thanks, Jason Kreidler

I have built a couple 10's and the throttle cable has been short every time, I always have to order the 50.5 also, please call Van's and brief them about the problem because I already have and the more people that bring it to the attention maybe they will change it.
