gas pedal clip for throttle cable?

Post by steved » Wed Apr 01, 2015 8:08 am

Is there an extra clip or something on the gas pedal to keep the throttle cable in place??

I have one more exhaust pipe to build, and I should be starting the GTX for the first time this weekend.

Yes, there is a little plastic thing that pushes into a hole to keep the cable in place. It's easy to lose.

A little round plastic thing that goes in the hole. Some of the kits come with one.
