Well unless you guys can mail me a miracle the motor's coming out.
Here's the deal, while I've been pushing this car around for about 4 years I left the cables attached to it. every now and then a cable would fall down and apparently I ran over the accel cable which in turn bent the throttle cable tube. I tried every which way to straighten it but I couldn't get it straight enough to slide the threaded stud part of the cable through. So against my better judgement I threaded a bolt down the tube gambling that it would straighten it out. You guessed it, it broke off. This really wouldn't have been that hard a job to straigten if the fan housing wasn't so close to the tube.
So I plan on dropping the motor in the next week or two and drilling down the tube until it gets straight.
Any other suggestions?
Pity and condolences accepted,
