RAM 1500 Truck 4WD V8-5.9L VIN Z (2002)
If cable setting is too loose, early shifts and slippage between shifts may occur. If the setting is too tight, shifts may be delayed and part throttle
downshifts may be very sensitive.
The transmission throttle valve is operated by a cam on the throttle lever. The throttle lever is operated by an adjustable cable (Fig. 247). The cable is
attached to an arm mounted on the throttle lever shaft. A retaining clip at the engine-end of the cable is removed to provide for cable adjustment. The
retaining clip is then installed back onto the throttle valve cable to lock in the adjustment.
