MG MGA - RHD air control cable lengh?

Does anyone know the length of the cable, say measuring only the flexible cable itself of the air control cable that runs to the heater flap in the engine bay?

Moss sell part no 611284 but this also fits TR4/4A and is at the very lease two foot to long.
Easy to cut down but what is the exact length, as I have nothing to go on?


Many thanks
Mark

Mark, cut it to a convenient length, then trim the wire to suit. (take the wire out first!!)

Mark,
Is it this one in the SPL - 34 1/2" AHH5529 ? Mine is also this length.

The other two are not listed with a length but mine are 16" and 24" (coiled section) from the solid mount.

Regards,
Mark

Item 14 here mark

Any idea how they measure the 34 inches, is that tip to tip or just the flexible part?

I can't find that measurement in the twin cam SPL. But these heater obviously point the other way.

Mark,

That measurement was from my twin cam SPL and the twin cam heater for #36 - the others are not given. The other two cable lengths were for just the flexible outer sheath length for #14 (AHH5786 = 24") & 15 (AHH5787 = 16").

Hope that helps,
Mark
