Keep your pedal and carburetor working together with the Pioneer Automotive Industries Carburetor Accelerator Cable CA-8487. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1976-1978 Chevrolet Chevette. The cable links the accelerator pedal to the carburetor throttle linkage, so the throttle opens as you press the pedal and returns when you let off.
Pioneer offers its cables as a high-quality replacement alternative. This one pairs a durable steel inner cable with a polymer outer housing.
Signs an accelerator 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 lost throttle response. Carburetor or linkage problems can cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing. See the Buyer's Guide tab for complete application details.
