Accelerator adjustment

[Wilderman]

Since ive started driving the Accord ive come close to stalling it a few times and, im man enough to admit, I have actualy stalled twice :blush: This is not an excuse (honest) but I find the accelerator pedal a bit sticky and theres a very small amount of travel before it responds. Is there any way to adjust it so theres no play in it?

You can adjust the cable very easily... we had a thread up not long ago... try a little searchy .

Thanks for the info Dan. That link doesnt seem to apply to my model but it did point me in the right direction B)

Yep that's the one and a very easy fix as well

This made so much difference to my car's feel. Well worth the 5 minutes it took to sort out. Mind you, hasn't stopped me stalling :lol: (only when pulling funky parking manoeuvres, honest :blush: )
