Yes if you notice the accelerator itself there will be TWO L bent cable guides underneath for the cables....Strange as it may seem even if one is cut it is normally changed as a pair...If you kneel and look at the carb from the back brake side, you will see a black cover and the two cables entering it....It foxed me..I am yet to experiment with single cable..will do and post later...Originally posted by SriramEfunds View PostThat's news to me Aneesh! I'm adding one more point on my checklist while taking delivery
@PSR:- Any thoughts about the double accelerator cable on ZMA?

Engine Kill switch is for emergency stopping of the engine...for instance,if the petrol leaks from tap, or petrol tube, and start to spill on running engine, with the kill switch you can stop engine instantaneously...or when normal ignition switch develops loose contact and unable to switch off engine...it also saves the frequent use of key ignition switch often when you are waiting at signals and want to stop engine to save fuel..Originally posted by SriramEfunds View PostI don't mind if it is there or not.

When driving downhill, in the night with DC lights ,if need arises for you to switch off engine and wait, BUT WANT THE HEAD LIGHTS ON for safety..engine kill switch helps...these are some of the uses I know of...When Was The Last Time,You Did Something For The First Time.
