Problem with the throttle cable on my 1981 Hunter 30 on an Edison pedestal. Throttle cable shield is cracked / very stiff and need's to be replaced. I have the replacement cable, but need a little advice on how to replace. Can see the clam shell type bracket connected via a single screw 9-10 inches from the top of the pedestal (aft), below the wheel shaft & chain assembly. Needless to say, I can't reach the cable bracket by hand and am concerned about starting a repair that I can't finish. If a bracket part drops into the pedesal the job gets much harder. Does the bracket disconnect from pedestal and pull up in one piece ??? If so, how do I realign / reconnect when complete ?? If not ... how do I feed the cable into the bracket and down the pedestal ?? The bracket doesn't appear to open enough to take the OD of the cable assembly.

Suggestions??

Edson has a website with instructions on how to change out engine control cables.
Good Luck.
