Is there a way i can tighten my throtal cable to give me more throtal response?

i'd like instand responce from depressing the pedal, and don't want any "play"

and if i can, i tried looking in my chilton manuel...dumb question, but...where is the throtal cable?

 

sorry to flame you but... if you dont know where the throttle cable is then i dont think you should be messing around with it.

the throttle cable are those silver cables right in front of the throttle body, to adjust it, you loosen those bolts and adjust, and tighten to stay at the setting.
double check which one belong to the cruise control, i forgot which ones which.

 

Ok, i didn't mean i didn't know where it was, i meant, i didn't know how to adjust it...and i tried looking it up in my manuel, and my manuel didn't even say where it was...

thank's mike813

 

Is is ok to tighten it? will it cause any problems or premature wear?

well if your car dont need any adjustments itll cause yout idle to be super high, and gas comsumption will double, just check if theres any "slack" if so then tighten it just a little to get it right... its to give u a better response thats all, it should be checked every month if you like to floor it alot.

 

RICE RICE BABY, Doing this will do nothing but waste your time and fuel. Then in a few days,you'll be posting questions like "I adjusted my throttle cable and now my idle is really high, WTF???"....


If you are looking for free HP, try advancing your timing. smaller wheels, and get a damn 5 spd!!!

um...yeah...ok...how to start this, i know!

I'm not a ricer, i'm not looking for extra hp, i'm not looking to make my car faster...i just want to get rid of the slack in my accelerator pedal.

btw, does anyone know how to get my brake's to repond faster? would bleeding and flushing the brake fuild help?

 

also, Weapon R makes a smaller throttle rotor that increases throttle response by reducing the distance the accelerator has to be pressed to open the throttle. I have this on my car, makes a noticable difference.
