Adjusting the Accelerator
Pedal
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface, stop the
engine, and engage the parking brake.
2. Adjust the ball joint on the accelerator cable
(Figure 71) to allow 0.100 to 0.250 inch (2.54 to
6.35 mm) of clearance between the accelerator pedal
arm and the top of the diamond tread floor plate
(Figure 72), when a 25 lb (11.3 kg) force is applied to
the center of the pedal. Tighten the locknut.
Note: The engine must not be running and the
return spring must be attached.
