Transmission Throttle Control: Mirage

1. On all other models, ensure throttle lever is in curb idle position. Engine must be at normal operating temperature.
2. On all models, raise cover "B" of throttle cable upward to expose nipple. See Fig 1. Loosen lower cable bracket mounting bolt. Move lower cable bracket until distance between nipple and top of cover "A" on throttle cable is .02-.06" (.5-1.5 mm).
3. Tighten lower cable bracket mounting bolt to 108-126 INCH lbs. (12-14 N.m). With throttle lever in wide open throttle position, pull cable upward to ensure some cable free play exists.
