350kick-down cable attached to the pedal?
Just got my 72 Lemans running and took it out for a spin. It seemed to go through the gears awfully quick, so I started looking for the kick-down cable to adjust it. Not finding it on the carb, I traced it from the trans to the firewall where it entered the cab.
Under the dash I find a frayed steel cable and what looks to be a second cable mount on the throttle pedal. Being new to Pontiac's, is this how the cable is supposed to be attached or did I find some more Backyard Engineering? |

This is correct for that car. Looks like you need a new cable.

Yep that's the way they did them on those cars.
BTW if you have a hard time finding a new one I have some on hand.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
