Hi all.
I have a holden vn that developed fault 22 so i changed out the tps sensor but in tacking off the throttle body
the bloody bolt snapped that holds the throttle cable to the throttle body. I'm now stuck and wondered if it was possible to change the bolt. it is connected to the butterfly that goes to the throttle cable control.
Thanks for any help.

Can we have a pic?

Do you mean the end of the throttle cable where it bolts to the bracket? if so, then you will need to replace the cable.

Make sure you remove the throttle body off the manifold before you start taking things apart. You REALLY don't want odds and ends falling down inside where only air should go...

It's a VN. Go buy a complete throttle body for like 10 bucks. Save dicking around.
