Datsun 620 1977 KC
Hi there guys!
+Story for your amusement.
So It was 2 pm, on a fresh afternoon, I went to the bank, got some cash, pay some bills, return to work (it was my lunch break) as soon I arrived and parked my gas pedal when down till I hit the wall. So I get off the car to watch what has gone to it, and I see this metal ball on the floor, my gas pedal just ripped off and there was no extra line to pull with a pliers or something. So its payday and decided to buy one online (ATP Acce Cable on Ebay $12), and it arrived on Friday, (this was on Wednesday and there was a party outside the Job so I went there and leave my truck there at the parking lot. Nothing wrong can occur right? So its Friday, the mail arrived, had to make a long line to cross the border, when to the P.O. Box returned to work, and when at my desk I open the package, I made my war-cry face. The cable seem to be missing a part. But....in reality that's how the cable it is.
+The Real issue.
So, this cable is missing something like an oval shape plastic, where you put 2 screws on them to attack on the body of the car, then the small metal ball that attaches to your pedal goes to the other side, this prevents the acce cable to not be loose, and its missing that, the one I removed it has that, clearly the new one has a screw like ring on it, but it cannot be attached to the body of the car so it hangs loose, at work, my father came to help me, so we actually tried to place it but it was not possible, so we ended up placing some clip on pliers on the gas medal (to the cable) and drive the car home like that.
+Recheck on internet.
I researched again for acc. cables, but when I found out the one that really looks like the one I had, it seems its for a Datsun 720, but the problem is that cable is way too long.
+Solutions
1. Give up
2. Buy another one.
3. Get the one for the 720, and hope it works.
4. Wait for someone to have a link to the real deal. (I hope its not those 40 dlls acc cables @_@)
