I have 2 planes, 1 old Firestar 2 that came with a 12hr 447 (it's from the early 90's so I tore it down and put all new seals in it), then a newer Firestar 2 kit with no engine that I am getting near the covering stage. Unfortunately I didn't get any throttle nor choke cables with the plane that had the engine.

Can anyone point me to the correct throttle cable used in a Kolb Firestar 2 with a 447? I'm not sure what I need nor where to get it, same goes for the choke cable.

Does anyone have a photo of how the choke cable attaches to the Bing carb on a 447? My CGS Hawk with a 447 had the choke lever right on the carb but I see in the Kolb plans they remote it to the cockpit area and my Bing that I have has the choke lever removed at the carb and there's just a little post sticking up that I assume attaches to a cable.

I'd ask Kolb but I have called in the past and left messages, I have emailed, and I have texted different questions but I never get any response from them so I'm asking here. Are they still in business?

Thanks,
Jay
