Remove cable from throttle body

It's the one directly to the transmission. How do I remove it from the (TPI) throttle body? Pry the black plastic clip? It's probably very simple...

Re: Remove cable from throttle body

best to do it by hand. One hand holts the throttle closed, the other, the one with the strongest thumb and first finger, pulls the black plastic end of the cable. As though trying to pull the cable out of it's sheath. Just pull it tht first quarter inch, that's all it takes.
