ABOUT THIS SECTION:

The parking brake linkage, throttle lever and cable,
power steering pump, and portions of the electrical sys-
tem are accessible by removing the dash panel. It may
be possible to service these systems without removing
the dash panel. Removing the dash is a relatively sim-
ple procedure, and the ease of access provided by
doing so will save time.
