I tried just about everything there is on the hot side of things. Of course lead won't stick, and it's too soft anyways.
I tried a quick zap with a wire feed welder, and the cable just went up in smoke. I tried the one off of youtube where the guy melts silver solder into a hole drilled in wood...
Hello everyone, long time lurker, first time poster. Lots of good information and people to be found here :) Please bear with me if I refer to anything with the incorrect names/terminology, I'm a newbie when it comes to this stuff, but I'm here to learn!
Well, I purchased a "home made"...
I just installed my 212 Predator on my Doodle bug but have run into a problem with the throttle cable. I have a standard doodle bug throttle cable and the exposed cable is about 4" long. I installed the OldMiniBikes Predator Throttle Kit and installed it but the brass grommet was missing. Once...

What end do i need for drum brake??? clevis? cant find one there.

or is there a better cable
Does anyone have a trick or way to crimp somethimg to the end of a throttle cable that way it can be used in the twist grip. I also have the same issue with a brake cable. There was a tiny brass ball crimped on the end which held the barrel on to the cable that went in the brake lever itself...
Hi I can't seem to hook up my throttle cable to the carb. linkage and i cut some of the cable and now it frayed. I would like to know what I do with my throttle cable in order to to hook up to my carb. linkage. I don't know where the throttle cable goes.
I need to shorten the cable not the housing, if I cut it do you think I could crimp a piece of metal and solder it on. Do you all think it will work and be safe I wouldn't want it to come off and get sucked in to the motor.
All help is appreciated! Thank you in advance.
anyone been successful pressing a new square end on a speedometer/ flexcable?
I have a cable on my rupp which is too long. I took the flanged end off and cut the cable and housing. it seems that if a lot of pressure isn't used to form it the will fray apart.....
When making the ends of the cables. Whether barrel or ball ends. Do you jst use lead? Any lead? Wheel weights? Fishing weights? Is there a special lead? What do you guys do?
Dies anyone know what size set screw goes into the cable stop bit that comes with the kit? Last two kits i bought there was nothing in it. Wanna get one on the way home.
Does anybody know where to buy the retainer that goes on the swing arm of bonanzas? All the ones from OldMiniBikes warehouse are too big in diameter. Thanks
Who sells a 5/64 (.078) brake cable (I don't need the conduit) that's at least 70" long with a 5/16 or 3/8 Barrel that's 1/2 inch wide?
2nd best option would be who sells parts and I can make my own.
Thanks!

I have this carb how do you hook up a throttle to it I need to run this type of engine on my Pack mule fuel tank in the front and the updraft carb got this motor at a swap meet guy told me it had no spark someone screwed with the plug wire they put a new end on it but it didn't make contact...
I'm trying out a couple alernate throttle linkage setups and looking for a good part for terminating the throttle cable above the bell crank that will hold the cable nicely. I have some older parts at home and one is perfect. I'll take a picture tonight to see if anyone knows the part number...
