Mechanical throttle linkage was replaced many years ago. Most every modern vehicle in the past x years uses a cable to control the throttle. That is unless it was equipped with an electric wire to the throttle control mechanism.

I don't see any downside with a cable and see many advantages. No. 1 advantage is less friction, and the cable ends wouldn't be exposed to road debris any more than cars factory-equipped with a cable; maybe less so since the engine is in the rear.

I'll put it on my list of things-to-do (although the list is long).
