Accelerator Switch

Depress accelerator pedal; continuity should exist. Fully release accelerator; no continuity should exist. If switch does not operate as outlined, adjust or replace accelerator switch.
  2. To adjust accelerator switch, warm engine to normal operating temperature and run at idle speed. Adjust idle if necessary. Completely loosen accelerator switch adjusting screw. Then gradually tighten adjusting screw until "clicking" sound is heard. Complete adjustment by turning adjusting screw an additional 1 1/4-1 1/2 turns and retest switch.
