I might be wrong, but I don't think Eddie has an Irish accent.

I fixed the wiring on my throttle bodies, I cut the half snapped bit, soldered up, covered it with heat shrink tube & replaced the loom tape.

Then I got the broken idle adjuster off, it looks like it'd araldite ok once properly degreased. That's a 8mm spanner for scale.

A cable place would do that no bother. It's like a speedo cable inner and their crimper will keep it on miles better than any Araldite.

On the left, yes. Offside doesn't seem to be as good.

Lovely van though.
