: Throttle Problem....very Odd?

1991 ski doo formula plus with mikuni 34 carbs.

I have purchased 2 new throttle cables from parts unlimited.

Both cables act the same way....like they are 1/4" too long.

In the picture where the cables are fully seated, the throttle is really loose and only pulls the slides half way....if the cables are pulled out about 1/4" as in the other picture...the throttle works fine and the slides open all the way.

I have adjusted the screw on top of the carb, and it does not help at all.

What the heck is going on????????????????????

Thank you.


sorry

Did you buy cables for the 38-40mm carbs by accident ?

Wouldn't suprise me if the cables were ordered wrong or packaged wrong, happens all the time.

I finally got fed up with parts unlimited and ordered a genuine set from skidoo.

I will see what that cable does...has anyone ever seen this problem?...meaning bad parts unlimited cables?
