    Throttle cables

    More or less curious on who runs what for a throttle cable. I lost or tossed my original out, when I was rebuilding the motor and bought a aftermarket one from the local parts store. It seems to bind up in the sleeve, but im also under the impression its the tight bends that aren't helping...

    Things are getting hot!

    So my buddy and I finally have the wiring situated to the point of the st regis turn over again. We then found out that there was no power going to the coil so we thought the starter relay was shot and replaced that. Still no spark. So I investigated further and found some blown fuses, but while...

His was cooked on the truck. Is there a replacement one or is there a way to update that wire. I know...
