Throttle Valve Cable/Linkage: Adjustments

Throttle Wire Adjustment





1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. While pressing lock plate, move adjusting tube in Direction T.
3. Release lock plate. (Adjusting tube is locked at this time.)
4. Move throttle drum from P2 (idling position) to P, (Full throttle position) quickly and release.
5. Ensure that throttle wire stroke "L" is within the specified range, between full throttle and idle.
Throttle wire stroke "L": 40 - 42 mm (1.57 - 1.65 inch)
- Adjust throttle wire stroke after accelerator wire is installed and adjusted.
- When connecting throttle wire to throttle drum, do not use tools. Manually hook wire.
- Put mark on throttle wire for measuring wire stroke.





If throttle wire stroke is improperly adjusted the following problems may, arise.
- When the throttle drum fully-open position "P1" is too far toward Direction T, the shift schedule will be as shown by (2) in the figure, and the kickdown range will greatly increase.
- When the throttle drum fully-open position "P1" is too far toward Direction U, the shift schedule will be as shown by (1) in the figure, and kickdown will not occur.
