B;

I don't know what NAPAs generic cable looks like...I'd just measure the inner cable thickness and buy "music wire" from a machinist place in the correct length...yes the original had a loop so you need to take that into account in length...but this is not crutial to replacement...as long as both cable wrap around peg, two will work just fine...what is important, is that the sheath is captured well under the dash...see also: http://sw-em.com/checkchoke.htm...if replacing it with a single piece with a loop in the center, heat with a torch before bending (you'll never bend it at that tight a radius without first softening it).

I suggest you lube your cable sheaths internally!

Cheers
