The accelerator cable links the gas pedal to the carburetor's throttle linkage. Pressing the pedal pulls the inner cable to open the throttle, and releasing it lets the throttle close. Over time a cable can fray, kink or bind inside its housing. If a worn cable is behind a sticky or stiff pedal, this unit replaces it.
Signs this part may need replacing include a pedal that sticks or feels stiff, a throttle that is slow to return, and a visibly frayed, kinked or damaged cable. Diagnose the cause before replacing, since linkage or carburetor problems can produce similar symptoms.
