The idle control cable on my D is all melted looking under the hood... the know wont turn, and the cable looks kinked... I'm in for a new one, if I can figure out which, but I'm wondering if it's really necessary... it starts alright with a little gas. That's the main function of the knob, right, starting? Also, what the heck caused the melting? Something about a ground fault's been tickling my brain... any input?

Also, to get the cable, how do I know my 'Chassis range'? None of the numbers I've looked at on FrauGreasel correspond to the ones referenced in the part page.

Thanks, all!
