Normally the the autolube cable is is pulled via a cable splitter [ one - pulls two ]under the petrol tank .Never seen three cables at twist grip

You're right FMtB but I can't think of anything else

Unless it's the wrong cable?

Thanks,
Another seizure would have really made my day.
It must be the oil pump, because on the AR there are two at the splitter that attatch to both sides of the
carb pully wheel and a third seperate cable that also comes from the throttle body.
I'm not with it today...I was so pissed off earlier - I accidentilly snapped the the thread of the main jet off in the carb
Had another lucky escape and managed to fish it out, I knew I shouldent attempt anything else while I was
in a mood neven an easy job like re- attatch the cables
I keep telling myself this is supposed to be fun and relaxing
Cheers

.

throttles are already badly sticking. I need to order new ones as these are fraying, but I have spent too much money on it this week. Ah well I have beer in hand now at least
