Too much slack?
Wondering if this is too much slack on the throttle cable?

throttle cable pix 2
According to service manuals the "deflection" can be 10-12mm. what is that?? is it the distance between the ccontrol cable like the pic below?

Re: Too much slack? (myjc)
Why don't you simply cut down on the slack? What prevents you from doing that?
In the long run, I guess the cruise control is convenient.

You'd have to push the gas pedal farther before you accelerate, since the first bit of movement only gets the cable taught, then additional movement actually opens the throttle.
