Installing any choke cable in the car is also a major pain, but the new one I received from Moss was identical to the original --- EXCEPT it had cut ¼” off the length of the threaded part, making the threads too short to go all the way throught the dash hole. I could not install the original nut on the threads and had to use a 1-inch long coupling nut to make the new one functional.
