Subject: Bonnet release cable
>I have had three bonnet(hood) release cables break on me. Usually after
>about 10-12 pulls. The problem is the outer coiled wire sheath pulls out
>of the crimp at the handle end. I have now bought a stock Canadian Tire
>cable which they offer as a generic choke/hood cable. Problem is I cannot

>Very simple and easy to get at.
