As it goes I just replaced my cables last Sunday. (Believe it ore not, it took
my 5 hours. )
I have been alarmed as the right carburetor did not fully open as I engaged the
throttle in the cold hangar. The part outside of the housing bend instead of
moving into the housing. Don't want to experience this during a flight!
I also used high end bike parts (Jagwire) to replace them. (The original cables
have got a very poor quality). 
I want to encourage at least the builders that have not already installed the 
cables that came with the kit to use a better quality ones.
Now the cables are pulled by the carburetor spring instead of pushed by the 
throttle
arm.

Regards Juergen
