Acceleration Control (Description and Operation)

Component Locations

The throttle is controlled by the accelerator cable which is connected to the accelerator pedal and shaft.

• The accelerator pedal and shaft should travel smoothly from the idle to the wide-open throttle (WOT) positions. Hesitation on return 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 sliding inner member of the accelerator cable should not be lubricated and is not serviceable.
