Accelerator Cable: Adjusting

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1996 Volkswagen Passat. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

With the accelerator cable in the Wide Open throttle position, adjust cable by positioning the securing clip -arrow- in the outer cable groove, so the injection pump lever just contacts the stop and is not subjected to any stresses. See Fig 1 .
