Just a quick question, the original bushing broke where the the tv cable connects to the throttle body. I ordered a replacement bushing (87-93 Mustang 5.0L Aod Brass Tv Cable Bushing Kit by Ford at LRS - Same Day Shipping!) to replace the old one but does the tv cable have to be adjusted now??

thanks

I had to do that on my car as well. You don't need to adjust it. It will be locked in at the same place. But you can adjust it if you want you car to kick down faster. But there's no need for it.

Darn little clips! Always trying to run away........ You can get one of those small hairpin clips at Fastenal, ACE Hardware, Lowes. etc.
