Replaced the throttle cable today. The other day I was just checking over and noticed the cable at the carb end had a couple of whiskers. I looked a bit closer and found that the cable was virtually broken. Fortunately the car was in the garage, I dread to think what would have happened if it had broken when out driving.Thanks to BHM a new one was in the post the following morning. Took the opportunity to remove the pedal and give it a thorough clean.
I had exactly the same thing a couple of years back. On closer inspection, I also found strands broken at the bulkhead end as well. Having seen the horrendous price of a new Morgan one, I resorted to Carbuilder Solutions and purchased their cable repair kit in a tin (CRKIT). That comes with two long inners of different diameters and a good selection of universal nipples, at a current cost of just £12. It’s worth keeping one in the car, as it is very compact.
