Acceleration Control
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Ford Ranger. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The throttle is controlled by the accelerator cable which is attached to the accelerator pedal.
- The accelerator pedal and shaft must travel smoothly from idle to the wide open throttle (WOT) position. Hesitation on return or prevention of return to the idle position must not occur.
- Components such as wiring, hoses, sound insulation or carpet must not contact the sliding member of the accelerator cable or the accelerator pedal and shaft.
- The throttle assembly is not adjustable.
