1. With the engine switched off, turn the actuator motor lever to wide open throttle position.
NOTE: Wide open throttle position can be felt just before the kick-down position.
2. Measure and note cable extension between the metal end of the cable casing and the cable fork which attaches the cable to the lever.
-
This noted value = wide open throttle measurement.
3. Start the engine and run it at idling speed.
-
Measure again the cable extension between the metal end and the fork and also note this measurement.
-
This noted value = fully closed throttle measurement.
4. Subtract the fully closed throttle measurement from the wide open throttle measurement, i.e. wide open throttle measurement minus fully closed
throttle measurement and note this value which should be 39.0-40.0 mm.
5. Any adjustment is made by undoing the nut securing the cable casing and then pulling the casing towards the actuator motor.
-
After adjustment, the nut should be tightened to 5-7 Nm.
NOTE: Make sure that the cable attachment is not bent when adjusting and tightening the cable casing.
6. Check cable extension again and repeat adjustment if necessary.
