WARNING
• Lift only one end of the vehicle at a time. Use a suitable lifting device (chain hoist or hydraulic
floor jack) with 1000 lb. (454 kg) minimum lifting capacity. Do not use lifting device to hold
vehicle in raised position. Use approved jack stands of proper weight capacity to support the
vehicle and chock the wheels that remain on the floor. When not performing a test or service
procedure that requires movement of the wheels, lock the brakes.
3. Remove the MCOR (2) and drive bar (3) as instructed (Figure 5-10, Page 5-10). See MCOR Removal,
Section 12, in the appropriate maintenance and service supplement.

ing the accelerator pedal (1) to the pivot rod (6) (Figure 5-10, Page 5-10).
5. Remove the nut (10) and bolt (8) from the accelerator pivot rod assembly (6).
6. Slide the spring retainer (11) off of the accelerator pivot rod.
