Throttle Cable/Linkage: Description and Operation

OPERATION

The accelerator cable is controlled by an accelerator pedal and shaft. The pedal and shaft should travel smoothly from the idle to wide-open
throttle positions. Failure to return or hesitation on return to the idle position must not occur.

Surrounding components such as wiring, hoses, sound insulator and floor covering must not contact the sliding inner member of the accelerator
cable or the accelerator pedal and shaft.

The speed control actuator cable and the accelerator cable are attached at the throttle lever on the throttle body.
