**** IT have a problem here!! Just got motor up and running (5hp) Went to hook up throttle cable and the barrel is broke. Is there a good way to rig this up so we can run it? Part stores don't and won't have until the holiday weekend is over. Kids are ready to kill me at this point!! Any help will work out.

Solder the barrel back on? A simple soldering iron and some solder will do the trick. How did you break it?

Any sort of wire clamp/wire swivel can secure a cable. I'm sure you can find something like that at a home repair store like lowes or home depot.
I had the cable off when I took the motor off. I had rolled the kart on it's side and when I rolled it back over I'm guessing the wheel caught it and broke it.
I was able to get a screw on barrell at the auto zone to work for now. I'm thinking I need to change the cable now it won't release when you give full throttle now. It has to be pinched some where now.
