Throttle Control Cable

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1993 Honda Civic del Sol and 1993 Honda Civic. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Before adjusting throttle control cable, ensure throttle cable connecting accelerator pedal to throttle body linkage has .39-.47" (10-12 mm) deflection with throttle closed. If deflection is not as specified, loosen lock nuts and adjust throttle cable.
  1. With engine idling at normal operating temperature (cooling fan comes on), loosen throttle control cable adjustment lock nuts at transaxle control lever bracket. See Fig 1.
  2. Adjust lock nuts to synchronize movement of transaxle throttle control lever and throttle body throttle lever/linkage. Tighten adjustment lock nuts.
