    I took my carbs to church and went to reinstall and realized the stub cable that connects the throttle cable to the throttle was missing. It must have fallen off when I removed the carbs initially. Looks like Chacal sells them for around $60. Just checking to see if anyone happens to have a used one sitting around they might sell me. Thanks.

    Do you mean the small piece the two cable ends would slide into? I lost this entire piece (see pic)
