Throttle Valve Cable/Linkage: Testing and Inspection
THROTTLE LINKAGE
The throttle linkage adjustment is important to proper operation. This adjustment positions a valve which controls shift speed, shift quality and
part throttle downshift sensitivity. If the setting is too short, early shifts and slippage between shifts may occur. If the linkage setting is too long,
shifts may be delayed and part throttle downshifts may be very sensitive.
This adjustment is so critical that the use of a throttle lever holding spring is necessary to remove slack in the linkage during adjustment. Refer to
Throttle Cable and Linkage Adjustment in the Adjustments section.
