Hey guys I got an 85' diesel that I just finished rebuilding. My throttle cable is about to snap however and I cant find a new one anywhere. Anyone know somewhere to get one? Or maybe someone has a spare laying a round. _Thanks!

I actually ordered one for my G54b at O'Reilly's.... if it uses the same one, shouldn't be hard to track it down.
I'm looking into expanding my collection to include a diesel soon. Any recommendations? How do you like yours so far?

i made my own using the cable from a bike brake cable. you just crimp the end and solder it after putting it in the housing

I love it! I had ordered a new cable from eBay thay claimed to fit the diesel and turned out it was wrong. The gas and diesel cables are different. I'm probably going to make a patch with an old dirt bike cable.

Check to see if someone near you or on the Internet can rebuild it for you. Several places near me redo cables. The cable part is easy to build as long as you have the original outer sheath.
