Throttle Cable/Linkage: Service and Repair
1. Open the throttle valve fully, then install the throttle cable in the throttle linkage, and install the cable housing in the cable bracket.
2. Start the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with no load (transmission in [N] or [P] position, M/T in neutral) until the radiator fan comes on,
then let it idle.
3. Adjust the cruise control cable.
4. Hold the throttle link to the throttle lever; there should be no clearance.
5. Hold the cable sheath, removing all slack from the cable.
6. Turn the adjusting nut until it is 3 mm (0.12 in.) away from the cable bracket.
7. Tighten the locknut. The cable deflection should now be 10 - 12 mm (0.39 - 0.47 in.). If not, refer to System Diagnosis. See: Testing and
Inspection
8. Adjust the A/T throttle control cable.
