Hi, all. First, please forgive me if I could have found what I needed by querying past posts--I really know zilch about auto parts and want to be very careful to receive help for what I need so that I don't wind up misunderstanding something in older posts and obtaining the wrong part.
My accelerator cable broke a few weeks ago and my car has been out of commission. My neighborhood auto shop has told me that they've given up looking for a part, but encourages me to look online, which is incredibly annoying from knowledgeable people like they are to someone like me who depends on them. But I digress.
Desperately seeking a replacement cable that would fit my 1997 Thunderbird, a V-6. Someone showed me an item on eBay that's more than $100, someone else showed me parts at AutoZone that supposedly might work for about $35. (Again, to return to digression, I don't know why my local shop couldn't get that from AutoZone, IF it in fact would work...)
Help?
