Accelerator Cable Check and Adjustment

For models equipped with the auto-cruise control system, refer to On-vehicle Service.
1. Turn off air conditioning and all lights. Inspect and adjust at no load.
2. Start engine and allow to idle unit it reaches normal operating temperature.
3. Confirm idle speed is at prescribed rpm
4. Stop engine (ignition switch OFF).
5. Confirm there are no sharp bends in accelerator cable.
6. Check inner cable for correct slack.
7. If there is too much slack or no slack, adjust the cable as follows:




1. Loosen the adjusting bolt to release the cable.
2. After moving the plate to the position immediately before the throttle lever starts to move, move the plate back towards the throttle body by the standard value amount only to bring the accelerator cable slack to the standard value.

Standard value: 1 - 2 mm (0.04 - 0.08 in.)

3. Tighten the adjusting bolts to the specified torque.




8. Adjust accelerator cable play and confirm throttle lever stopper touches the fixed SAS.
