Hi again,
I forgot to say that if the travel and cable
length is sufficient you could simply slack it
off a centimeter at the carb end. It will then
work normally, just a bit further "out". (This
depends on the choke linkage and the fast idle which differs).
I checked and J.R. Wadhams doesn't seem to stock
these cables. The cable itself is a generic type
used on many different british cars. what differs
is the knob type and the length. MG specialists
have these cables as they are used on MGBs. You
can usually get cables with the round knob used
on later P6s. It may have the wrong symbol, but
this can be exchanged by prying out the clear
plastic cover and substituting your old one (if
this is the same shape). Length should not be a
problem as long as it isn't too short to begin
with. It's easy to shorten the cable.
