Component Location, Part 2:






The accelerator cable is controlled by an accelerator pedal. The pedal should travel smoothly from the idle to wide-open throttle positions. Failure to return or hesitation on 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.

The speed control cable and the accelerator cable are attached at the throttle cam on the throttle body.
