    Throttle body issue..

    Hello! Quick question--On the TC throttle body, does this nub press out for the TV cable, or do I have to grind it off? I think the auto parts store has throttle body bushings, but the issue is getting the fitting off and fitted into a bushing...

    The one on the right is 86 model specific. The one on the left is 87-91. If you're talking about that one on the right... you'll do more damage to the linkage trying to remove that peg than just swapping the linkage over.

      ^^^ What he said. The TB lever shown on the right of that picture should only be used on '86 box Panthers, or you can use it on any other box Panthers but you have to have the '86-specific TV cable to match it. What are you trying to do anyways?

        yar, 86 part. no bushing needed. Hopefully you did not pry the cable down and off. If you did, its ruined and you're pretty well fucked on that. I believe I got the last NOS one probably 9 years ago.
