my mechanic is telling me the throttle cable i ordered is too small, that the old one is over 60" long, is that possible?
Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
No, they have to be trimmed down in fact. Something is unoriginal on your vehicle or it is being mis routed.

I ordered and installed a throttle cable and it works as advertised except the accelerator return spring is too strong and overcomes the cable friction and pulls the throttle back to idle. Do I need a new accelerator return spring?
Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
Sounds like you may have a wrong spring there. Email mike@kaiserwillys.com some photos.

Whats the difference between the throttle cable and the choke cable? I need the cable from the gas pedal to the carb.
Willys Tech:
There really is no difference between the parts except for what the knob says.
