How to replace throttle cable - 2006 Piaggio BV 500

I'm sorry, but I can't provide a visual diagram as I can't display images or diagrams. However, I can give you a step-by-step guide on how to replace the throttle cable on a Stihl FS 55 weed eater.
Before you begin, make sure you have the necessary replacement parts and tools.
Materials and Tools:

• Replacement throttle cable
• Screwdriver
• Pliers
• Allen wrench
• Socket set

Procedure:

1. Safety First:
   • Ensure the weed eater is turned off, and the spark plug is disconnected to prevent accidental starts.
2. Remove the Air Filter Cover:
   • Locate the air filter cover on the weed eater's engine and remove it. Typically, this involves loosening screws or clips.
3. Access the Throttle Cable:
   • With the air filter cover removed, you should be able to see the carburetor and the throttle cable attached to it.
4. Disconnect the Throttle Cable:
   • Carefully disconnect the throttle cable from the carburetor. This might involve loosening a screw or bolt holding it in place. Note how it is routed and attached.
5. Remove the Handle Housing:
   • Locate the throttle trigger on the handle housing and remove it. This may involve unscrewing parts of the housing or loosening screws to access the cable.
6. Replace the Throttle Cable:
   • Feed the new throttle cable through the handle housing and reattach it to the throttle trigger. Make sure it's properly connected.
7. Reconnect at the Carburetor:
   • Reattach the other end of the throttle cable to the carburetor in the same manner it was originally connected.
8. Adjust the Cable Tension:
   • Adjust the cable tension to ensure it operates smoothly. There should be some slack when the trigger is released but no excessive play.
9. Reassemble the Weed Eater:
   • Reattach the air filter cover, making sure it's secure.
10. Connect the Spark Plug:
    • Reconnect the spark plug and ensure it's properly seated.
11. Test the Throttle:
    • With all the components reassembled, test the throttle to ensure it's working correctly.
12. Start the Weed Eater:
    • Reconnect the spark plug and start the weed eater. Verify that the throttle is responsive and functions as expected.

This is a general guideline for replacing the throttle cable on a Stihl FS 55 weed eater. Keep in mind that specific models may have variations in their design and components, so refer to the user manual or consult with a professional if you encounter any difficulties during the replacement process.

To replace the throttle on a Stihl FS38 weed eater, you'll need to follow these steps:

1. Disconnect the spark plug wire to prevent accidental starting.
2. Locate the throttle cable where it connects to the carburetor and carburetor housing.
3. Use pliers to loosen the lock nut on the carburetor side of the throttle cable and slide the cable out of the carburetor and carburetor housing.
4. Replace the throttle cable with the new one, feeding it through the carburetor and carburetor housing and tightening the lock nut on the carburetor side with pliers.
5. Check the operation of the throttle by starting the engine and confirming that the throttle cable moves freely and the engine speed changes accordingly when the throttle is manipulated.
6. Reconnect the spark plug wire.

It's recommended to consult your FS38's user manual for specific instructions as the process may vary slightly based on the model.

replace the throttle spring and take the handle off and grease in there

Simple solution: One of the two throttle cables has broken. Replace both throttle cables, and your problem will be solved. (Throttle cables on the Roadking are neither particularly expensive nor difficult to replace & adjust.)

throttle cable ??? should actually have a throttle rod that goes to a very short piece of cable. and this cable only goes from the carb to the throttle rod. the cable is actually easy to replace. it's only 3 inches long. the throttle rod or trigger requires removal of one side of the handle.

What year model. Take tank off. Take cover off throttle on handle bars. Release tension on throttle cable by loosening cable adjusters. Release cable from carburetor. Release cable from throttle housing on handle bar. Reverse instruction to install new cables ...2 cables.

I'm sorry but I can't send a diagram via this site. I have no idea where I can get a diagram either.

But, to replace the throttle grip on your Softail, you'll see the not only are you replacing but you're replacing the throttle sleeve as well. This actually makes it easier.

To replace the grip, first loosen the throttle and idle cables as loose as you can at the adjusters close to the throttle grip. Then remove the screws that hold the two halves of the throttle switch housings together. Carefully seperate the housing halves as much as the wires will allow.

You'll see the cables coming up and connecting to the throttle sleeve. Each cable will have a ball and a ferrell on it. Work both cables loose and slide the throttle sleeve off the handlebar.

Now, lubricate the inside of the new throttle sleeve, the cable area of the throttle sleeve and the handlebar with fresh white lithium grease. Slide the throttle sleeve up on the handlebar and work the cables back into the throttle sleeve. Be careful not to lose the ferrells. They must be in there for the throttle to work properly.

Once you get the cables installed into the sleeve, put the switch housings together and install the bolts. Before tighten the bolts slide the throttle up onto the handlebar until it stops. Then back if off about 1/8 to 1/4" or so. Tighten the bolts. Readjust the cables leaving just a bit of slack in the throttle cable.

With the engine off, twist the throttle to wide open throttle and let go of the throttle grip. The throttle should snap shut. If not, loosen the cables a bit or back the throttle grip a bit further off the handlebars. The throttle grip must work correctly or serious injury or death may result. This job must be done correctly. It's not difficult just make sure it's right.

Good luck

Remove the seat, tank, and airbox. Follow throttle cable from the grip to the carbs seeing which way it is routed. Unscrew throttle housing and note which way the cable goes. Make sure when you replace the cable there is free play in the cable. Do not make the cable tight. Give slack in the throttle. Tighten. Twist throttle 10 times to make sure that there is no binding and a good snap! Chaz Moto DC

If you're talking about the old style throttle cable that is internal of the handlebar, it's pretty straight forward. Remove the throttle grip, the rollers and pin for the plunger. Pull the plunger out bringing the old throttle cable with it or at least out far enough to loosen the small set screws that lock the cable in. Now, run the new cable through the outer housing. put the end of new cable into the plunger and tighten the set screws. Replace plunger into the handlebar, replace pin and rollers, replace throttle grip. Now, set the throttle to full closed posititon. Move carb throttle lever to full closed position. With throttle cable through clamp tighten screw securing cable. Check for proper operation of throttle mechanism.
