Thanks for the reply. Oddly I had an issue with the throttle cable about 2 weeks ago. Seems like it was seized in the sheath. i was able to free that up with some WD-40. When it hung up, I forced it pretty hard into position. I wonder if I caused the throttle linkage to pop off. I found them for sale on the c/cadet website, but it didn’t display any pictures, so I cant see how its configured.
