Accelerator Pedal: Installation

The accelerator pedal is connected to the throttle body linkage by the throttle cable. The cable is protected by a plastic sheathing and is connected to the throttle body linkage by a ball socket. It is connected to the accelerator pedal arm by a plastic retainer (clip) (Figure ). This retainer (clip) snaps into the top of the accelerator pedal arm. A retainer clip (Figure ) is also used to fasten cable to dash panel.
