Know where I can find a part like this?

[Coverfire]

Hello, I'm looking for a part like this . . I'm not sure what to call it (grommet maybe) or where I can find one. It's where the throttle links to the go kart frame to hold the cable sleeve in position. It's on a Murray Explorer and it's a pain to set up throttle without it. Thanks for any help!

I don't know what those are called either, but I've robbed them off of scrap bicycles - there seem to be two sizes, the ones on brake cables are bigger and beefier. Looking on Amazon I see this kit for $20 shipped ( HDM Go Kart Racing GX160 GX200 6.5HP Predator 212 196 Clone Carburetor Throttle Linkage Carb Kit ), they call it a "Compression Fitting"

- which makes me want to go look at little brass compression fittings in the plumbing section and see if they'd work.

Sorry I'm not more help

EDIT: go to Amazon, and search for "Cable Adjusters". Lots of styles, I'd definitely look for one made of steel or at least beefy aluminum.

No, I appreciate your response! Thanks for the heads up. Maybe I'll check out a bicycle store and see if they have something similar.

Do an Amazon seach on "Cable Adjuster", lots come up. (who knew it'd be named something so obvious, doh!)

Just buy one of these and put a thicker washer on both sides and call it a day.........
