Left-Hand Drive Accelerator Controls Replacement SOHC L24

1. The throttle system includes accelerator and cruise, should operate freely without hesitation between full closed and wide open throttle. Throttle system components causing hesitation or sticking should be replaced. Inspect for the following:

•	Missing parts such as retainers or clips

•	Interference of linkage or cable conduit to critical components such as fuel lines, brake pipes, harness leads, etc.

•	Proximity of cable to exhaust system and other heat sources; check for melting and/or discoloration

•	Cable kinking, maintain generous bend radii of cables

•	Clearance of throttle system moving parts throughout their travel relative to stationary components

•	Damage of components due to cable kinking, severe abrasion, misalignment frayed core wire, etc.

2. Replace missing or damaged components. Reroute any misrouted components.

Notice: Accelerator and cruise control cables should not be lubricated. If a binding condition exists with the cable itself, replace the cable assembly.

1. Remove the air intake tube and fresh air hose.
2. Remove the PCV hose.



3. Release the accelerator control cable from the throttle lever.
4. Release the cable retainer locking tangs from the accelerator control cable bracket. Use a 16 mm box end wrench to aid in depressing the throttle cable retaining tabs.



5. Release the accelerator control cable from the accelerator pedal assembly.




Important:  The accelerator cable assembly can be removed and installed easier with the accelerator pedal assembly removed. Refer to Accelerator Pedal, Shaft, and Bracket Assembly Replacement in this section.

6. Release the cable retainer locking tangs from the dash panel. Use a wrench to aid in depressing the throttle cable retaining tabs.
7. Remove the cable from the vehicle.

Caution: Ensure that the vehicle is properly supported and squarely positioned. To help avoid personal injury when a vehicle is on a hoist, provide additional support for the vehicle on the opposite end from which the components are being removed.

1. Raise the vehicle.
2. Route the cable through the front of the dash from the outside in, under the intake manifold, and up between the second and third intake ports.
3. Lower the vehicle.




Notice: Whenever a throttle cable assembly is installed, make sure the locking tangs are engaged to the front of dash and the seal is properly installed. The cable should be installed so that the tangs are in a horizontal position to provide optimum sealing. Pull on the cable to ensure the tangs are engaged.

4. Install the cable retainer into the front of the dash.



5. Install the cable retainer into the support bracket until the locking tangs engage.
6. Connect the accelerator cable to the throttle lever.



7. Inspect the air cleaner gasket and replace if torn, deteriorated, or damaged. Install the air intake tube, fresh air hose, and positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) hose.
8. Connect the accelerator control cable to the accelerator pedal assembly.
9. Check the accelerator control assembly for binding.
