SENNA1 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 Hi, just wondering how you guys have connected the throttle cable to the twin weber carbs(those of you who have webers). In my case,the cable is coming out from bulkhead towards engine bay & then after a big 'S' bend is going towards the weber top throttle linkage(That's at the r/h side of the engine block of course).This 'S' bend makes the throttle pedal too stiff/hard to use . Is there any other way to connect this cable to the webers & thus having a 'normal' throttle pedal feel? Thanks to all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The link that i bought to my dellortos have two cables i think in that way the feelling in the pedal will be more soft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cable linkage on your twin webers as i can see,is situated at the midle of the twins This is the layout of the throttle cable(difficult to see but...it does make sense!)

"http://s991.photobuc...nt=SDC10014.jpg To instal the second cable depends on the type of the linkage that you use In this site http://www.dellorto....artsectionID=49 you can see some types of linkage to use in weber or dellorto You can find this in ebay too and for good prices. I bought an use linkage to my dellorto, it is with my brother in London i live in Portugal, the kit comes with 2 cables cut to RHD i have have anothers to instal in my car, so if you want when i recive them i can send to you the cables free.

Another question: I have the DCOE top mounting linkage for my webers.This linkage accepts 2 cables.Is it possible,if i fit 2 cables instead of 1,to have a much smoother pedal, or the stiffness of my pedal arises from the tight 'S' shape direction of the throttle cable? Also,how do you attach the second cable to the pedal?Pedal has a recess for only 1 cable . Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks in advance Hi I think that the second cable will help to improve and smooth the control of aceleration, but i'm not instal this in my Manta so is just my opinion. When you instal a second cable you will need a piece that will conect the two cables and then gos to the pedal, it is this picture. This photo is from the kit that i bought to my dellorto I think that some one can explain better how to instal and if will improve the smoother of the pedal.

SENNA1 Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 I 've checked the site & decited that i have to change the linkage mechanism to this one.... http://www.dellorto.co.uk/merchandise/products_details.asp?PartNo=STLK100&CategoryID=8&PartsectionID=49 This mechanism changes the direction of throttle cable thus making (i thing) a more easy pedal feeling.Pedal block which attaches to pedal & 2 cables are also included. Thanks again Costa & all the rest of you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackA1972 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 how does the block fit to the pedal or do you just connect the existing throttle cable to the block in the engine bay but shorten it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
