when the throttle lever contacts the stop.
5. Stop the engine.
6. Adjust the ball joint on the accelerator cable and/or
cable jam nuts while the throttle lever is against high
idle stop to allow 2.54 to 6.35 mm (0.100 to 0.250 inch)
of clearance between the accelerator pedal arm and
the top of the diamond tread floor plate, when a 11.3
kg (25 lb) force is applied to the center of the pedal
