Broken clip on throttle cable
Broken clip on throttle cable Is the plastic bracket on the throttle cable replaceable? Or does it have to be a whole new cable swap? Im aware of junkyards, ive tried many searches, and I know I can just replace the whole thing if I have to, but the cable swap looks like a PITA lol
im just trying to find out of theres a part # or a replacement/fix for the beige plastic clip in the picture. Its kind of a close up picture but im sure you guys get the idea, its looking straight down on the throttle body bracket

Pretty sure it is only fixed through a full swap. I have the same issue, I ended up putting two small tie-wraps (3") together and zip-tied the clip in place at the spot on the intake.

I ordered a new one... Had to go to eBay.. I also hope I didn't order the wrong one.. Apparently if you have traction control the cable is different? I need the small clip but I couldn't find it anywhere - so I ordered the whole cable.
You kids, these days... didn't Grampa ever tell you
about the miracle that is called baling wire? And why
you should always have at least a couple feet worth
in the trunk?

You will have to purchase the whole cable. It is not hard to replace. I did mine about 4 years ago. The little platic thing starts to deteriorate because of the high heat under the hood. After awhile it starts to worp. I looked at mine the other day while changing the oil & filter. It is starting to worp again. You can use a little bailing wire or zip tie it. But it looks getto when ever you open the hood. Dont remember what it cost to replace but it must not be too bad or I would remember it for sure...
