Pioneer Automotive Industries Carburetor Accelerator Cable P/N:CA-8873
Link your gas pedal to the carburetor's throttle linkage with the Pioneer Carburetor Accelerator Cable CA-8317. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1979-1984 Chevrolet C10, 1979-1986 GMC K1500, 1979-1982 Chevrolet K5 Blazer and 1982 Chevrolet Cavalier. Pioneer builds it to OE specs as a high-quality alternative to a worn original cable.
When you press the pedal, the inner cable slides through its housing and pulls the carburetor throttle open. Signs this cable may need replacing include a sticking or stiff pedal, a throttle that is slow to return to idle, a frayed or kinked cable, or delayed throttle response. If a worn cable is the cause, CA-8317 replaces it. Inspect the throttle linkage and return spring at the same time.
