Throttle Cable/Linkage: Description and Operation

OPERATION
The throttle is controlled by an accelerator cable and accelerator pedal and shaft. The following should be noted when servicing this system:

- The accelerator pedal and shaft should travel smoothly from the idle to wide-open throttle positions.

- Hesitation on return and/or prevention of return to the idle position must not occur.

- Surrounding components such as wiring, hoses, sound insulator and floor covering must not contact the sliding inner member of the accelerator cable or the accelerator pedal and shaft.

- The throttle assembly is adjustable for free play and wide-open throttle position as outlined.

- The sliding inner member of the accelerator cable should not be lubricated and is not serviceable.
