Hey guys, I pulled my engine last weekend for some repairs...got everything back together, buttoning up everything when I realized my throttle cable is hanging from its tube up where the clutch cable attaches to its arm and wing nut.
Please tell me how to route it to the fan shroud tube and tell me I don’t have to yank my engine back out to do it |

The throttle cable should be going through a flexible tube from the chassis to the fan shroud tube, which is a metal pipe. It should be clear run from the chassis to the pipe. You just have to get under the car with a flashlight, find the end, find the end of the pipe and run it through, may be easier with the left rear wheel and tire removed.
It's usually the last thing I hook up because it's necessary to start the motor and makes me check everything else before.
