[QUOTE="wanaride, post: 957164, member: 44530"] I am trying to replace the upper half of the throttle cable on my kids' 2004 PW50, and I need some help! Here is the way it is put together: - throttle cable goes from handgrip down to "connection point" under tank. - under the tank, a white circular piece with two slots on the sides connects the upper throttle cable to the lower throttle cable and oil pump cable. - a black sleeve slides over the white circular piece to hold it all together and to keep dirt out of the cables. I can see how it all goes together, but what I have not been able to do is to slide the white circular piece out of the black sleeve. Until I can do this, I can't replace the upper half of the throttle cable. I have tried lube'ing it up with WD40 and shoving it down towards the carb, but the black sleeve will NOT come off of the white circular piece. One mechanic told me I needed to disconnect the lower half throttle cable from the carb and disconnect the oil pump cable in order to replace the upper half of the throttle cable. I don't think this is right, and besides, I can't figure out a way to disconnect the oil pump cable anyway. :( I'll never do this job again, but in the meantime, I've got to fix this. Any tips will be GREATLY appreciated! :cool: [/QUOTE]
