I'm trying to get the throttle cable retainer on the cable (motor end). It is a plastic piece which looks like it acts as a guide. It has a slot and then a hole where the cable goes through it, and it is screwed down on the lower motor cover. The slot isn't terribly large, and I"m afraid to bend it open far enough to get the throttle cable through the slot into the hole without breaking it. Anybody have any ideas on how to do this?
