I need the piece that screws onto the top of the carburetor that the throtle cable sits in, not sure what its called.
 
Give me your address and I'll send you one. It has some marks from mistakenly having used pliers on it, but should be good. My throttle plunger doesn't move in the carb and I bought the CNS upgrade...

Excellent Dude...

Not only will Opaphis get the part he needs...he will also get a bit of VERY good advice!

DO NOT overtighten this part with pliers! Light snug is fine!

Contrary to some of the posts you may have read...It is impossible to have a vacuum leak around the threaded top that serves as the throttle cable stay!

The carb is a Zamak casting...The bore that the slide goes into is somewhat precise... (.002"-.005" clearance between the bore and the slide). Overtightening the top, which serves as a cable stay, will distort the housing causing the slide to jam.

also, in case you were wondering, the technical name for that part is "the thing on the top of the carb that the cable goes into." :)
