Anybody have any pics of how the throttle cable is supposed to go through the engine bay? Mine goes from the driver's side firewall around the front of the engine near the altenator and then wraps around to the throttle body where is hooks up. I wasa hoping maybe you guys had a pic or something. I've tried to figure it out because I'm sure this isn't right and in pics I don't see anyone else's like this.

if you want to you can tuck it behind the motor... it cleans up the engine bay a lot.

you can tuck it without it kinking up?

I didn't realize that was the correct way. I guess I had seen a lot of cars with it tucked.

NA - close to firewall
T2 - 1948104 feet long and wraps around the front of the engine to the backside of the TB

you can you just have to be careful.
my cable ran across the firewall and looped by the wiper motor.

There's a write up on here on how to put an N/A throttle cable on a TII. I've done it to a few cars, mine included and it's so much neater!

Awesome. I'll definitely look into doing that. I just hate how it looks. It is one of the first things I notice when I pop the hood because its such an odd way to route the throttle cable.
