okay, i need a throttle cable for my go kart because mine snapped. but it has no ball on the end or barrel its just a straight wire in a rubber tube... so can i just order one a little bit bigger and just cutt it to size? i just made a ghetto one yesterday with a bunch of bike brake lines that i bound together lmao:thumbsup:

Didn't you already start a thread about this throttle cable? Go to walmart and buy a 10speed bike cable repair kit. It's about $6-$7..... Use the long one for the throttle....

straight .. in a tube?

go to the next bike shop, tell them how long it needs to be.. they cut it from their 100ft reel.
either reuse your old tube, or buy it new at the same bike shop ;)

(use brake cable.. it's a bit thicker and will not snap as easily as a shift cable IIRC)

Please refer to post #18.... That's your moderator giving you a lesson on forum etiquette..... I suggest you pay attention.
Now you're posting in the wrong section again, after being told not to. You also asked the same question again and got the same answer.....
Thats not cool.....

:roflol:Hey jim we have rules at surplus center ?

Wrong link wooooooooops

It's right here; read my post in that thread & you may understand why everyone is jumping on you...

If you have trouble finding your threads in the future, go to your profile page, click on the "statistics" tab then "find all threads..."
