New FMS T-Body now too much throttle cable slack

Nik_95Cobra · May 25, 2004

Hey everyone...I just put on FMS's 65 mm T-Body, which is a direct replacement, and now there's wayyyyyyyy too much throttle cable slack. The accellerator pedal's about 3" off the floorboard, and only has about 2-3" of travel. How can I correct this problem? Thanks for the help!

did you put the Spring back on the throttle body to the throttle cable bracket????

DP sorry

Sure did...I see absolutely no reason other than maybe the cable was already broke and releasing it just allowed it to strech out the rest of the way. Maybe I'll try ordering a new cable.

Fixed it...Did sort of like they did with the spacer on Mustang World, took a rubber vacuum hose and slid it inside a larger hard rubber hose, cut a slit up the two, and used two mini hose clamps to clamp them to the cable between the end and the pedal grommet. Now all pedals are even.
