How hard is it to tell us what you have??
I've never, on *any* vehicle, had to remove an engine to replace an accelerator cable.
You have obviously never worked on a Carpezi Svetlimeister Model III! ;)
It's very easy to do on a '70 bug.

GOOD, lol, i put a new carb on mine vdub, and went to adjust the throttle, and... it SNAPPED i'm gonna be buying another one soon, thanks everyone
Michael, you are absolutely correct..hehe..

First step of engine removal: disconnect throttle cable from linkage and pull through fan shroud.
Last step of engine installation: feed throttle cable through fan shroud sleeve and connect to linkage.
Why drop the engine? It will add an additional four hours to a procedure that should only take ten minutes :)
(I had to change one in a center turn lane of a five-lane-wide city street during rush hour. That replacement only took five minutes.)
