 |
|
So it appears that others have had the same issue.
As stated, if I change the servo arm angle to decrease the length of the needed cable, I will run the risk of the angle between the cable and the servo arm approaching 180 degrees and having the over center problem. I need to get another cable. Do I send back the one Vans sent for credit or is that a no go?
When orderring another cable of Cable(S) isn't it preferable to have a slight bend in the cables so that they can be braced with cushion clamps? My current throttle cable is so tight between the eyeball grommet and the throttle cable bracket that it is a straight line. I certainly can't change the cable position and it rubs on the bottom of the oil pan.
Lastly, in reference to the mixture and the prop cables, they pass the rear left corner of the oil pan, but appear as though because of their lack of play will be rubbing on that corner and they most likely will eventually get between the bottom bar of the engine mount and the bottom of the oil pan. The actual seperation of the pan and the mount are about the width of the cable which concerns me that the cable will be worn down with engine vibration.
Trying to figure out whether to order more than the throttle cable. Have others had wear issues with these cables between these parts?
Thanks
John
