Throttle Cable

Check throttle cable free play by operating accelerator pedal by hand. If pedal free play is not .0-.16" (0-4 mm) for all models or pedal stroke is not 1.97-2.17" (50-55 mm) for all models, adjust to specification by turning nut connecting throttle cable to throttle body. See Fig 1 .
