Looking for a throttle cable/shaft picture

[Algershick]

Can someone please take and post a picture of how their throttle cable attaches to the throttle shaft on a Quadrajet carb? My cable had a damaged bushing, so I bought a replacement and went to install - the stud on the carb is too short and I can't install the retainer clip.

Thanks,
Austin

Thanks, Pontiacgp. This is a photo of the type of bushing that the throttle cable uses on my Cutlass. I believe the cable in your photo has a smaller diameter hole for the stud. Looks like maybe I need to buy a new cable...

I haven't seen a throttle cable with that bushing..

The plastic insert was gone from mine, and the rubber portion was only half there... I shouldn't be surprised that it wasn't right, nothing else on this car was. 😀
