Thought I answered this however I don't see my post
I had a Motion Pro throttle cable made, pull cable only.
You can see TM36-68 installation and blueprint for the throttle cable here;

With the TM you do not need the push cable at all. The return spring is plenty strong. it makes me wonder why there are ever push cables.

it's lighter too!

Maybe it's just me but I feel safer with a push cable. I want full control. Imagine a pull cable bind that was stronger than the spring.
