hi. Been told i need a throttle cable with a ball on the end..
any carb-equipped nova cable do? or are 1.2 carb cable different to 1.3 sr??
i take it my existing nova cable (has a 'stud'-style end on it) must off any usual m.p.i models..?
thanks

at the moment you have a barrel type ?
you after the push on ball with the gay clip (like the rear gas strut?)
1.2 carb will do

yeah! i think your right nick,.. barrell-type you call it...
yeah gay clip ball thing. Ok 1.2 carb one.
Im using a bowyer linkage for itb's and it uses o.e throttle cable, but turns out my m.p.i is no good..

where will the new cable fit n/s or o/s of the engine,
iv got a ball one here that will go aound the bay about 5 times lol
All the injection nova engines use that type of cable.
spi and mpi
Best off with a gte/gsi cable as its the longest

all injection novas used what, the clip ball type..??
so all nova cables are the same??
I dont need much length, itb's are right at the back of the engine bay, near the bulkhead..
The clip ball yeh.
No, some carb engines used barrel end cables.

i tried a 1.2 spi one on the sri and it was too short
They are both the same fitting yeah, but the mpi one is longer
