I've never, on *any* vehicle, had to remove an engine to replace an
accelerator cable.

You have obviously never worked on a Carpezi Svetlimeister Model III!

It's very easy to do on a '70 bug.

there are some caveats on how it attaches to the pedal...

First step of engine removal: disconnect throttle cable from linkage and
pull through fan shroud.

Last step of engine installation: feed throttle cable through fan shroud
sleeve and connect to linkage.

Why drop the engine? It will add an additional four hours to a procedure
that should only take ten minutes

(I had to change one in a center turn lane of a five-lane-wide city street
during rush hour. That replacement only took five minutes.)
