actually if these do fail what can be done is remove the entire metal bracket
and hook the cable through the loop on the accelerator pedal...
i'm waiting on my bushing and this worked great... just don't mash the
accelerator as hard
as you can.. this will cause the cable to be under undo stress and possibly
break really leaving you stranded..
it does require you to readjust the linkage @ the top..
but it will get your car around until the part arrives.. BTDT.
HTH!
