Terry,
The car is often hard to start in cold weather that is why I would like to
hook up a choke. The cable I brought is a metal aftermarket one, it is the
one with like a tight coil outer with a thin wire, coathanger width in the
middle. The outside is like a compresed coil, but even with the slight s
bend in the cable when I run it the same way as the factory cable, but it is
still impossible to pull out. I will have a look around for some other
cables to see if any better than my existing one otherwise I may have to try
the wreckers.
Thanks
