Link your accelerator pedal to the carburetor throttle linkage with the Pioneer Automotive Industries Carburetor Accelerator Cable CA-8446. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1975-1979 Mercury Cougar, 1977-1979 Ford Thunderbird and 1977-1979 Ford LTD II. Pioneer builds this cable to OE specs as a high-quality replacement alternative for a stretched, frayed or binding original.

  • Steel inner cable: a durable steel inner cable carries pedal movement to the throttle.
  • Polymer outer housing: shields the inner cable from corrosion and abrasion.
  • Built to OE specs: Pioneer manufactures its cables to original equipment specifications.
  • Brackets, grommets and ends: Pioneer cables often include common brackets, grommets and ends where applicable.

Signs this part may need replacing: a sticking or stiff accelerator pedal, a throttle that is slow to return to idle, or a frayed, kinked or stretched cable. If a worn accelerator cable is the cause, this replaces it. Diagnose the carburetor and throttle linkage as well before replacing.
