Throttle Cable (Except S2000)

  1. Ensure cable is routed properly and that cable moves smoothly without binding or sticking. Start engine and run at 3000 RPM with no loads and transmission in Park or Neutral, until radiator fan comes on. Allow engine to idle. With throttle link held against throttle lever, there should be no clearance.
  2. Check cable deflection at throttle linkage. See THROTTLE BODY CABLE ADJUSTING SPECIFICATION  table. Use cable lock nut and adjusting nut to correct cable deflection if necessary. Ensure throttle valve is fully open when accelerator pedal is fully depressed and that throttle valve is at idle position when pedal is released.
