I have a McFarlane throttle in my plane and my mechanic trimmed the cables too short 2 years ago. This has resulted in great difficulty getting the carbs adjusted right since. Does anyone know if you can just replace the cables?
My plane is an Evektor Sportstar with a Rotax 912 ULS

It it is one like this, https://www.mcfarlaneaviation.com/produ ... V0005D048/, then probably not.
Re: McFarlane Throttle cable replacement?
Yes, it looks like it might be the same thing just a bit longer. It is a MCTV0005D072

I've never used the McFarlane throttle cable, but I did put a McFarlane choke cable on my old 06 SportStar about 15 years ago, and it worked out quite well.
