Need a choke cable in good shape for a 78 fj40. Mine is frayed and will not work any more. Also if anyone has any tips on how in the world to get under that dash and change the thing out - cain't seem to get a wrench under there to release the nut on the back.

Remove the instrument cluster; make sure you isolate your battery(s) so that you do not arc out the ammeter wiring while doing so.


You will then be able to reach right in there and get on the cable.

A stubby open-end wrench helps a lot too.

Thanks guys - good advice - still need the choke cable if anyone has one. It's doing fine in warm weather without it but I'm sure it'll give me fits when it cools off again.
