Hey all just a query about the throttle cable on a xe corsa.
Here is a pic of how mine is routed. Is this how all corsa xe's have to go? over the engine like that?
Is there another cable people use off another engine? maybe the existing corsa one?
Another problem i have is the clip that holds the cable from pulling out either way by the throttle body..
I cant get that clip on because if i pull the cable out enough to put the clip on it over-revs (by a lot)
How has other people found this?

u sure the wernt 16v's cause the 8v has like a ball the cable pops on to with a small pin going through to stop it poping off,and the 16v is the same as an xe

maybe i did replace the cables. its been a while. and thinking about it... that makes sense with the ball and pin. i think you might just be right.
