    Holding the cable with a pair of pliers? It can be hard to hold it taut with fingers while tightening the bolt. If you're going by the book, I assume you tightened the barrel adjusters all the way short before you started, also. (Make sure the pieces of the barrel adjuster are engaged - I've screwed them all the way apart before, and it can be a little tricky getting them back together.)

    Also, a service manual without grease on the pages is no service manual at all.
