Cheers,
        I'm struggling with marrying the 914 to the firewall and note that 
already one of the installed throttle cables is kinking. Admittedly, the 
return spring is not on the engine end, but once is kinks the likelihood 
exists.........
        So presume to install a solid wire instead and wonder if someone 
else has good advice on this. 'Piano' wire comes to mind but not sure of the 
replacement diameter needed, nor of rusting considerations. fortunately 
there's a well-equipped model shoppe half a mile away. The guilty twisted 
cable measures 0.060 inches and presumed something simialr would be required 
for the clamps, etc.
        Any relevent suggestions gratefully received.
