Re: Accelerator cable replacement and idle
Thanks I think the previous owner had fugdge a cable repair at some point as either end on the old cable was nothing like the replacement. There were a few zip ties plus the spring added too. Anyways all seems to be working fine.

Re: Accelerator cable replacement and idle
Sorted. I removed the spring shown and the cable end dropped in nicely, so over revving issue sorted. The spring however shot off and can't be found. It doesn't seem to make any difference to throttle modulation in anyway. Should I be concerned about finding and replacing the spring?

Re: Westy pop top hardware paint code
Ral7032 seems to be a good match. I've ordered a can and will see how well it matches.

Re: The anatomy of a winding window?
Sorry for digging up and old thread, but the window scrapers on my Westy have perished and I need to order some replacements. Can anyone point me in the direction of the scrapers which have the chrome strip as the only ones I can find are just black and id lose the original look.
