Question

Throttle Cable Adjust

Anyone know how to adjust the throttle cable to get full throw on the butterfly after bump stop mod? The car has TCS also. Any other ideas?

in the throttle cable line there is a black thing that you can un clip and pull it until you will be able to get full throttle

See how much slack is left in the nonadjustable cable
from TCS cluster to pedal. May be plenty.

Found the adjuster. Got full throw at WOT,but now idle is way off. Need to find happy medium.

You want to snug just to where it barely doesn't draw
the blade off the seat. If that doesn't open fully need
to take the other slack out. I had to add a 1" or so
spacer to my gas pedal.
