Adjustment Procedure

    Object Number: 205258 Size: SH
  1. Install the clevis to the modulator cable.
  2. Install the threads of the modulator cable into the clevis to a 20 mm (0.8 in) thread engagement.
  3. With the engine OFF, position the throttle lever to the wide open position.
  4. Position the clevis over the throttle lever mounting hole.
  5. Position the clevis pin through the clevis and the throttle lever.
    6. 5.1. Make sure the distance between the clevis pin and the end of the clevis slot away from the cable is between 1-2 mm (0.04-0.08 in).
    5.2. If the clearance is not between 1-2 mm (0.04-0.08 in), thread the modulator cable into or out of the clevis in order to acquire the correct clearance.

    Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

    Tighten the modulator cable nut to 12 N·m (106 lb in).
