Default 69 Tripower accelerator cable

My original (?) cable broke and the replacement I installed is a little too long for one thing and it doesn't allow the linkage to open the throttle the whole way. No WOT ! I cut off some plastic to help a little but now the wire jacket is still preventing it from a complete opening.
Is there a certain cable I should've used for this set-up?
Thanks much...

Is your rod that is bolted to the Accel pedal straight or bent.....should be straight.

I'll check it out and post my finding. Are you talkin' about the place where the cable clips in with the plastic piece?
Thanks
