Worse, only Stick cars need that short cable so getting Used part is even harder.
MD9 is TH125c & cable is 1 piece from pedal to TBI & "idle" pulley is totally Round.
For Ref: top pulley is for Cruise servo cable that pulls the bottom pulley when active. Other "cable slot" that "runs backward" & goes "nowhere" on the this pulley set is for TV cable to MD9 trans.
Can Make a cable out of Brake/Clutch Cable for Bikes etc. The ends don't need to look nice just to keep the ends anchor.
Quick Example: Find a brake cable w/ 1 factory "barrel" end to use on plastic pulley (so 1/2 the work is done) then figure out metal pulley end where can mod the pulley as needed to anchor that end.
Might be able to make a tight loop for TBI end & use a nail as the "barrel." Or maybe just hook the pulley but file out sharp areas where cable hits. Crimp/solder a small steel tube to make the loop.
Or drill 1 or 2 small holes in a nail to fit the cable then "crimp" the hole(s). 2 holes carefully done will make very hard to pull out even before you "crimp" 1 or both holes w/ a punch.
Or just use longer cable thru the TBI cable section then into 2 or more holes you drilled in the middle section & maybe a small screw to finally "clamp" the end so stay put.
The ends see "static" loads once installed & barely or never see full tension of the cable as part of pulley carries most cable load except maybe @ very end of travel @ WOT.
Barrel & other ends are easy @ the factory etc but often ways to get around the factory ends. But in this case, don't use Solder like many on YT etc does to make important/critical ends. that only good for things like lawn mowers etc.
Gas Pedal should be around same height as brake pedal when the cable(s) are right. But often Fiero Gas Pedal has problems too so can't trust that. Like the Pivot Block & arm section passes thru is way worn making the pedal to sit lower. see
https://web.archive.org/web...~fierocave/cable.htmBut I don't have pics of the block mostly because all black & no easy way to see where is worn in a pic. The Arm & metal bracket is easy to see when you remove the block.

Dr. Ian Malcolm: Yeah, but your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.
