So, when we were changing Murray's tranny at Chuck's house, Chuck and Sammie 
made this big deal about my accelerator cable because it was a braided cable 
attached with a small turnbuckle to the front assembly. "What the hell is 
this?" was, I believe, Sammie's direct quote.. I explained that it was my 
system after I had broken a couple of cables. It was strong and the turnbuckle 
let me adjust the length when needed. It had lasted, trouble free, for years.

Well, people (I can't remember who all, but you know who you are) convinved me 
to replace it with a regular cable from the VW parts place.

So, today, after pulling off the belly pan (#!%^#*!!) what did I find? THE 
%#!&%*$#!!! CABLE HAD BROKEN AT THE JUNCTION WITH THE HOOK!!!!
I am going now to the hardware store to by a small braided cable and I still 
may use a turnbuckle, I don't know. But if anybody tells me, ever again, to use 
a #!%#!!! approved VW accelerator I will slap them so hard that people on Mars 
are going to look at each other and say, "did you hear that?" (Ack ack, ack 
ackk?)
