Acceleration Control
NOTE:
Some vehicles are equipped with adjustable brake and accelerator pedals. These pedals are serviced as an assembly. For additional information on diagnosing and servicing this component, refer to BRAKE SYSTEM-GENERAL INFORMATION
.
The throttle is controlled by the accelerator cable (9A758) which is connected to the accelerator pedal and shaft (9725).
- 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 accelerator cable should not be lubricated and is not serviceable.
