  • Steel inner cable for consistent throttle movement
  • Polymer outer housing helps protect against corrosion and wear
  • Bullet end and socket end configuration
  • Length: 16.37 in.

Inspect brackets, grommets, and linkage points for wear, and route the cable to avoid sharp bends or contact with hot or moving components. Confirm smooth throttle travel after installation.
