What's the best way to detach the throttle cable during an engine drop?

1. At the pedal assemby
2. At the throttle Assembly

I did it at the engine. It's is pretty easy to disconnect. It was a major PITA to reconnect. Make sure you take a good look at how it is attached B4 you detach it so when you are putting it back together it may go smoother that it did for me.

Good Luck!
