    Throttle issue - Part number help?

    Ok, so just got it back from service and aux rad replacement. The sun came out, took it for a blast and after heavy acceleration noticed that it was not slowing down like the throttle was still open. Changed down and came to stop at lights and had throttle open to 4k rpm despite not having my foot on the pedal.

    Pulled over, popped bonnet and found the small black plastic has snapped on the throttle cable. See pic. I sort of pulled the cable and latched it back on and drove home without gassing it.

    Do I need the whole cam part or is it part of the cable? Does anyone know a part number. Reading on another thread, it seem 034 do a metal cam which would do away with this issue again maybe but a new OEM one would be fine as assume this has lasted 23yrs.
    Cheers guys.

      Not a separate part. Find a good used throttle body and use or canabilize OR go to the 034 metal cam option.

          Try Danny @ DNA Autos, he's an 034 dealer and was talking about having the billet cam as a stock item. They're not cheap, but they are a quality part that'll last forever

            Cheers Andy,will send him a message as seems like the best idea and I doubt an entire body would be any less if it was in fact available which I doubt.

            Thanks
