I used a second clamp with a rubber insert, hole to hole,  to attach 
the cable where it passed by engine mount tubes.  I may have also 
used the clamp with rubber insert on the cable and this post has me 
thinking I'd better check the rubber for deterioration as they are 
now 10 years old. The KR is opened up for annual inspection so it's a 
good time to check.  The clamps can also be attached to small secured 
tabs when nothing else is close to the cable run.  I seem to recall I 
use one clamp with rubber insert mounted to a mount tube, attached a 
2 inch tab, and attached the cable clamp to the end of the tab.  To 
check installation, have someone push/pull the cable from stop to 
stop as you look for any cable flex.  No flex allowed over entire 
length of cable run.
