I got a replacement cable from SOR for my '72 because the old one had almost completely separated from the lead barrel on the carb end. The old cable worked fine, but it was going to loose the last few threads of cable soon.

So.... the SOR replacement cable....it drags something horrid. makes a nasty squeeling sound when you press it.... and it's hard to press.

I know it was binding a little in the bracket, so I corrected that with bushings etc.. still the cable is hanging up in the sleeve.

Anyone had this problem before? Is one company's replacement throttle cable better than another's?
 
I'd contact SOR, a new cable should be smooth and not bind. SOR is known for quality stuff that works, so I'd see what they have to say.
