Pioneer builds its cables as a high-quality replacement alternative. This one pairs a steel inner cable with a protective outer housing.
- Built to OE specs: Pioneer manufactures this cable to OE specifications.
- Steel inner cable: A durable steel inner cable carries pedal movement to the carburetor throttle.
- Polymer outer housing: Shields the inner cable from corrosion and abrasion.
An accelerator cable pulls the carburetor throttle open as you press the pedal and lets it return as you release it. Signs this part may need replacing include:
- A sticking or stiff pedal.
- A throttle that is slow to return to idle.
- A cable that is frayed, kinked or stretched.
Linkage or carburetor problems can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing the cable. If a worn cable is the cause, CA-8450 replaces it.
