Hi, see photo - I'm assuming the small black plastic nipple thing in the centre of the photo is where one of the cables comes though, but which one? Plus I can only seem to see one hole, so where does the other cable come through? Thanks, Mark

The hand throttle cable comes out that nipple/hole and the cable hooks into that throttle lever (black ring in photo) and held on with a grub screw/stop thing (cylindrical fitting you thread the cable through and tighten with grub screw).

That's great, thanks Neil. Where does the choke cable come through?

choke from memory comes through the pedal box.  I think, haven't looked for awhile and too cold and wet to go look in car.


Mine is modified so no more choke.

Hi Mark
On my 1983 Alfetta GTV4, the hand throttle cable comes thru the black nipple as indicated above and the choke cable comes thru the grommet above (50mm) were the 2 x wire looms come thru the firewall (if required can post picture).

Thanks for the replies Neil and Bonno, that's cleared it up for me.
