Part As Expected
The Homelite blower vaccum throttle cable was identical to the severed original, arrived on time - so part totally acceptable. However, installation more difficult because space cramped on this model and cable tubing needed heating due to cold weather to obtain necessary flexibility. Also discovered worn plastic trigger part prevented new cable from working properly so future further repair will be necessary. Setting throttle speed with idle screw to finish out this season.

I removed blower torx bolts, and phillips head for shroud. Pulled throttle assembly out, and old cable housing. Installed new sheath with new throttle cable, pulled new cable through throttle eyelet and pulled taught with needle nose pliers, then tightened the set screw. Put it back together, fired it up, adjusted idle screw, and away I go! E replacement will be my go to site for equipment parts! Thanks

It was a fairly easy fix. After removing the outer covers and bending the throttle sleeve with a heat gun to fit into the handle I had the blower running again in 30 minutes.
