Ron,
Though I've never had any problem getting the two carb throttle and enricher cables
to operate simultaneously, it does take patience and some perseverance to
get it just right on some airplanes. Most folks use commercially available cable
splitters but I owned a Rans S6S that had a home made one that I was able
to get to work perfectly well.
Zenith has a really good way to avoid the cable splitter entirely. The cockpit
throttle controls directly operate a pivot arm mechanism mounted on the engine
side of the firewall. The arms on the pivot mechanism are rigidly interconnected
to each other and move the carb throttle arms via short straight cables. Much
simpler and less tortuous than long sheathed cables that can start to bind
after many hours years of service.
