Throttle Cable

NOTE: Adjust throttle cable so transaxle throttle lever is at zero throttle position with throttle closed. If adjustment is incorrect, shift speeds and transmission main line pressure will also be incorrect.
  1. Remove throttle control cover. Disconnect cruise control linkage (if equipped). Loosen throttle cable adjusting nuts and remove accelerator cable top mounting bracket retaining clip.
    NOTE: Pressure point for full throttle position of accelerator pedal MUST be about 5/8-13/16" (16-20 mm) from pedal stop.
  2. Rotate throttle cam to full throttle position and hold. Insert a 11/16" (17 mm) shim between accelerator pedal and pedal stop. Push pedal until it touches spacer and hold in this position.
  3. Pull accelerator pedal cable housing until all slack is removed. Install locking clip. Lightly pull transmission throttle cable housing until spring pressure (resistance) of transmission kickdown is felt.
  4. Turn adjusting nut (closest to transaxle) against bracket and tighten other nut. Release throttle cable cam and accelerator pedal. Remove spacer and install throttle control cover.
