Laz this is when I don't have the correct ratio of cable and casing but need to go.
I get the cable hooked, and cable end seated, in the carb.
Using just enough cable, I hook to the throttle, mine's a thumb-type.
Then with a hose clamp, clamp the casing on the handle bar.
To adjust, move the throttle itself in and out on the bars.. Also I have to grind away on my
t-throttle or it would never do WOT, not enough room.
It takes a fine tune to have WOT yet return to idle on my 24,
the tension in the cable has to be exactly on the money.
****Always be sure you can hear the slide hit bottom before pulling
that rope after modding for WOT, my mini has left without me a
couple times. HAHA
