Throttle cable heat shielding.

What all are you shielding your cables with? My exhaust is wrapped. 

The cable had a plastic tube over it, then what looks like a length of 

1/4" thick hose and a heat shielding blanket. With all that, I still melted 

the inner liner. I'm waiting on a replacement cable and don't want it it 

happen again.

	I'd try DEI heat wrap tape. It's the only thing I can think of that might help. They have a kinda conduit tube style which should work pretty well. I saw it at Lordco. Chay
