throttle cable pic please.

Can someone post a pic of the throttle cable behind the TB. I think mine is to louse. Should it be touching that metal guide?

It should be inside the metal the metal guide with a clip to hold it down I believe.

It's a semicircle with an open top. It bolts to the 2 holes on the lower right of the throttle body, looking from the drivers side. I had trouble with this until I found the part I had taken off 2 months earlier and forgot about.

I'm not positive about the clip... maybe that was the cruise control cable?

I dont but I have the switch that makes it look like I do! Anyway should the nut be touching that rubber nipple thing thats on the cable. Petal feels alot better now I have the throttle responce I should have. Its a little to tight though because my Idle sits at 1k unless I pull up on the pedal. Do you think because my cable was so lose that when I floored the throttle plates werent opening all the way?
