thanks, Stephan! I did not use throttle lube as it's a new cable with Morgan kit. Please recommend what you think will work so we'll all know what to use when it starts sticking. I am surprised at the level of tech involved with the throttle. These cars are time machines. Wanna know what it was like driving in the 1930s? drive one of these.
The way you tighten the throttle cable is the same way you tighten the cables of your brakes on your ten speed bike. Anyway, I don't drive my car in the rain so I am dealing with modest humidity rust (from original owner who lived in Florida) and rust from me washing (oddly, the Harley Davidson rectifier bolts are not stainless steal so those are showing rust after only a few weeks). If there is a lube I need to consider, let me know. I imagine you would unhook throttle at the engine, tip the cable up, and spray down the cable hose? Mine does not stick or get bound up now so it's something I should prepare for later. I had the car out on a short sprint through countyside and performed really well. I have to say, the fan shroud limits engine noise a tad and so it's all grumble from the mufflers. And the 90 second relay is idiot proof. Turn it on after you're done with your ride. it shuts off automatically. but the main reason to get the fan kit I imaaine is because it funnels all that air past the back of the engine and looks so cool.
