gtmerk · 05-27-2005

So the gt is on the way home tomorrow.. I know it needs a accelorator cable. I hear rumor to the effect you can use air cooled vw cables.?.? true? untrue? it has factory FI so I figure it will probably be different then carb models. any info would be great. danka

gt never came with fuel injection so it has to be a self fit by a previous owner
as for cables you can use a bicycle brake cable as a throttle cable if you have to for long runs (it can be bought by the foot here ) and is more than strong enough
i dont know the lenth you need but a 1975 manta/1900 fuel inj. cable may fit
