I am trying to figure out if there is anything that holds the throttle cable down by the carb.

When I move the throttle control on th dash the both the wire part and the outside cover move instead of just the wire.

PO had a piece of baling wire tied to the cable back next to the tower to solve this problem but I don't like that solution. I can't see we're anything is missing and the other end is connect to the throttle cable assembly correctly.

I found a random picture online that shows a retainer coming off the back of the air filter. Is that correct? The picture didn't have a description to identify what machine it was but it looked pretty close. Any help would be appreciated
