Hi everyone! I'm Jimmy and I'm from Spain. This is my first time posting on here though I've read you all tons of times. I'm a mechanics student and I own a 1991 Ford Sierra Ghia by the way

So basically this is my problem: when I bought the car I firstly realized something was wrong with the tensor. I checked it out and effectively it was broken (this is kinda dangerous as you can imagine)
I decided to buy a brand-new throttle cable so I bought the First Line FKA1018 since it was the one theoretically made for the DOHC.



The only instructions ever given were, literally "1750mm long with female ball end socket (pedal)/barrel ferrule (carb/throttle body)"

As you can see, the tensor itself it's way different than the original one, so that's the beginning of my problems. Maybe I bought the wrong one?
The thing is I can't really see how it works, if you are supposed to split two parts or how to if that's the case...it's true mess.

Also, when I was determined to start mounting the cable I realized there was something wrong. The barrel in the actual throttle body it's also different (it's vertically mounted in the original one and horizontally mounted in the brand-new one, making a T) and for disassembling it everyone has told me something different so I don't really know how. Of course, I'd prefer to read your tips before I start over with it.




So that's it! Thanks everyone for reading me. I really hope someone can help me and I also hope this post is not too big or tiring or it's in the wrong place
Sorry for my English though.
