I had trouble with that same dual-choke cable from Swedish Treasures. The outer dimension is too wide for the clamp in the body of the SUs that retains the exposed cable. Removing the black covering and revealing the metal tube/sheath for the cable itself still doesn't give you enough room to insert it in the body clamp.

I never found a decent solution to this. Be careful, these little clamps are *really* easy things to break. That makes it really hard for the choke to actually drop the jets... Just try to find some other way to hold the cable stiff and straight near that jet ass'y.

The item from ST is pretty high quality and pulls very smooth and even ulike other things I've tried.

Good luck -SRC
