Throttle cable upgrade
I just got a thottle cable to replace my throttle linkage. It's a 24 inch. Was wondering if yall could drop some pics of the throttle cable replacements yall have done. Need ideas of routing and connections. Please and thank you for the help.

280z 78 Wont idle, Running Rich, out of ideas.
I had that issue. And I pulled the water temp sensor plug off. Jumped it with a paper clip to close the loop and it ran like a dream. $18 later for a new sensor and all good...... at that time. It thought it was cold and was dumping extra gas from the cold start injector.

Hello from Temple Tx
So far its just been fuel stuff. Car sat for a while. I'm about to clean out the tank for a 2nd time. Clean out all the like. I have already put a new fuel pump on there. And put a inline filter between the tank and pump to catch any rust. And it's working. But it clogs so fast I only get about 2 miles before it drops fuel pressure and starts running bad. About to just replace all the injectors when I clean the tanks again. Also looking at how everyone is converting to cable throttle set up to replace the throttle rods. I have a 24 inch thottle cable kit. But need ideas on when to route and mount everything. When I got the car the radio and ac vents and controls were all missing so I made some aluminum plates to fill the gaps for now.

A giant thank you to all of yalls post that has help me in the last few months.
