LHD V's RHD acc cables -MY :)

Post by steptoe » Fri May 13, 2011 10:40 am

Out of thriftiness, need and curiosity I ordered an accelerator cable for a BRAT from T'subes favourite clearance house rockauto. Being LHD the accy cable is possibly a different measure to a RHD cable I thinks to myself. Thinking the LHD acc pedal is closer to the carb than RHD, it may be too short.

The wait is over and....the LHD cable made in Italy is 110mm longer. Think I can handle longer :) under the bonnet there somewhere!

Yeah I've been wary of things LHD related!

Glad it turned out ok for you.
