Ok I know I've seen a similar post about this issue but I think it wasn't exactly the same. I've been dealing with small issues and fixing most of them with the help from these forums. But today I have a stumper. I just replaced the throttle cable a week ago and today it broke, it's almost as if it were grounding out and it got brittle and crumbled. I don't see anywhere it could have touched to get grounded. Even with the most slack it still doesn't come close to touching anything. Almost seems like it was burnt with an open flame if that makes sense.
