Johnnie,
Thanks for your reply but....
The cable is original but for the stock H6 model carb. It attaches very
low, not from the top. Just the same choke linkage as a TR3. It is just
not long enough to reach either the front or rear carb where the cable
would enter. I got this cable from TRF way back when I restored the 4.
TRF lists the same part # for both the 4 and 4A so I know if I order one
of those it will be way too short.
The cable I need must be much longer than the stock one for the TR4.
