#77911, "upgraded throttle cable?"




          

i recently broke part of the plastic sleeve for the throttle cable that is inside of the cab. it was ok at first, but now it starts to stick and squeek. i tried some liquid graphite spray and that helps for a while then the problems come back.
now it has gotten worse
almost everytime i blip the throttle to downshift it gets stuck at WOT and blasts right into fuel cut until i react quick enough to kick it so it unsticks!

does anyone know of a teflon coated throttle cable? or any other upgrade for that matter? or should i just call Bob and get a stock replacement?

thanks in advance

there is no upgrade to the throttle cable besides tightening it at the TB to ensure that WOT is truely "WOT".
