Throttle System

WARNING
Failure to check or maintain proper operation of the throttle system can result in
an accident and lead to serious injury or death if the throttle pedal sticks during
operation.
Never start or operate this vehicle if it has a sticking or improperly operating
throttle pedal.
Immediately contact your dealer for service if throttle problems arise.
Always check the pedal for free movement and return before starting the engine
and occasionally during operation.

Throttle Freeplay

If the throttle pedal has excessive
play due to cable stretch or mis-
adjustment, it will cause a delay
in throttle response, especially at
low engine speed. The throttle
may also not open fully. If the
throttle pedal has no freeplay, the
throttle may be hard to control,
and the idle speed may be erratic.
Check the throttle pedal freeplay
at the intervals outlined in the
Periodic Maintenance Chart
beginning on page 67. Adjust the
freeplay if necessary.

Throttle Freeplay Inspection

1. Place the transmission in PARK.
2. Apply the brakes. Start the engine. Allow it to warm up thoroughly.
3. Measure the distance the throttle pedal moves before the engine
begins to pick up speed. Freeplay should be 1/16 to 1/8 inches (1.5-
3 mm).
