hubcityford Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 What is the green part called in photo? How does it detach from carburetor. The wire goes into firewall behind driver side dash. Wanting to remove carburetor to clean and rebuild. This is a motorcraft model 2150-2V carburetor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LARIAT 85 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 That is called a throttle cable with a built-in return spring. It may sound scary, but you have to grab it firmly and pull it away from the carburetor until it pops off the throttle linkage. The throttle linkage has a ball stud that the throttle cable snaps on to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
