Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview

Inspection and Verification Use care when performing repairs on or around accelerator pedal linkage and controls. Inspect the accelerator pedal rod and attaching linkage for damage or distortion which would bind or limit accelerator pedal travel. Inspect the accelerator cable (9A758) for kinks or fraying which may cause binding. Also inspect the engine idle speed adjustment to ensure correct idle speed specification after any accelerator linkage adjustment or repair.
