[DeTomaso] Techno question: Small carb part

[Jerry Knotts]

Chuck,

I have always called it a throttle cable ball connector.  I think you 
can still find them in the "Dorman" selection at most local parts 
stores.  The Dorman section is a number of orange and black drawers with 
all sorts of fiddly part in them.

Good luck,
jerry

   Chuck,
   I have always called it a throttle cable ball connector.  I think you
   can still find them in the "Dorman" selection at most local parts
   stores.  The Dorman section is a number of orange and black drawers
   with all sorts of fiddly part in them.
   Good luck,

   Dear Forum,



                        There is a small part on the carb throttle
   arm/lever that connects to the end of the Pantera throttle cable.  The
   part is a small metal ball on top of a cone-like pedestal that fits
   sideways in the throttle arm.  The Pantera throttle cable end captures
   the ball of the carb arm in the socket of the end of the throttle
   cable.



                        If I have explained this well enough for it to
   make sense, then dumb questions follow:


   1)       What is the proper name of that fiddly bit, little ball
   thingee??

   2)       Where can I find one or two or three on a Saturday morning??
