2.2 THROTTLE PEDAL INSPECTION

THROTTLE FREEPLAY

If the throttle pedal has excessive play due to
cable
stretch or cable misadjustment, it will cause a
delay in throttle speed. Also, the throttle may
not open fully. If the throttle pedal has no play,
the throttle may be hard to control, and the idle
speed may be erratic. Check the throttle pedal
play periodically in accordance with the
Periodic Maintenance Chart and adjust the
play if necessary.

2. Put the gear shift lever in the N(Neutral) position.

before the engine begins to pick up speed. Free
play should be 1.5 – 3 mm.
