If you are talking about the cable that goes from the shift lever in the
console....

There should be a sheet metal inspection cover, next to the oil pan, that
you have to remove. There is also an aluminum piece that bolts around the
shift cable with one big bolt. Behind the inspection cover should be the
shift lever, and the cable should slide into the lever, with a keeper (and a
bushing) that is all held together with a long skinny cotter pin. I've
never seen on of these cables come loose unless it was broken or not
installed probably (like after a major repair).

Probably none of that makes any sense without some pictures.


If you are talking about the throttle pressure cable.... the lever has a
slot it in... lift the lever up so you have some slack to work with, and
then just slide the cable through the slot. there should be a little ball
on the end of the cable.... (I don't think I've ever seen one of these
cables just come loose unless it was broken)
