I got a TB for my car and Chris was installing it for me when we came across a problem. Does anyone know how to get the throttle cable off of the old TB? We couldnt figure it out to save our lives. He and Bryant weren't sure how to do it before and there is still no answer to the question. Can someone help me out???

Tiff. Bring your car by some time and Mikey and I can take a look at it. I have a stock 03 TB and It looks about the same as all the others.

There should be a little clip attached to the outside of the "hanger" that the cable is attached to.  This clip keeps the cable from coming off.  Just pull that clip off and then push the rubber bushing that the cable is on off the hanger.

Hum...I have an 03 and my throttle cable end-lock just slips out from the TB linkage and then you push the rubber piece out of the bracket.

No clips or mechanism that held my thottle cable in place.

Oh, and the TB should be removed from the intake manifold so you get cable slack to remove the cable end-lock from the TB linkage.
