Arkie,

The cable from the accelerator pedal to the throttle is different from the Bowden cable. The throttle cable (that goes to the pedal) is at the top of the throttle lever, the Bowden cable is at the bottom. The throttle cable actuates the throttle, the Bowden cable is actuated BY the throttle cable and effects the shifting of the transmission.

Hope this is of some help.

Jeff Pierce.
