Restore the direct mechanical link between your gas pedal and carburetor throttle with the Pioneer Automotive Industries Carburetor Accelerator Cable, part number CA-8760 (also written CA8760). This accelerator cable transmits pedal movement to the carburetor throttle linkage, and it drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1976-1980 Chevrolet LUV (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details).
Over time an accelerator cable can fray, stretch, bind, or seize inside its housing, causing a stiff or sticking pedal, delayed throttle response, or a cable that won't fully return. If a worn or damaged cable is the cause of these signs, this Pioneer replacement restores the direct mechanical connection between the pedal and the carburetor throttle.
What does this accelerator cable do?
It mechanically connects the gas pedal to the carburetor throttle linkage, transmitting pedal movement to open and close the throttle.
Which vehicles does the CA-8760 fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1976-1980 Chevrolet LUV. Check the Buyer's Guide tab and confirm fitment for your vehicle before ordering.
What is the cable made of?
It uses a durable steel inner cable with a polymer outer housing that helps protect against corrosion and abrasion for long-lasting performance.
What are signs my accelerator cable may need replacing?
A stiff, sticking, or slow-to-return pedal, delayed throttle response, or a frayed or seized cable can indicate the cable needs replacement.
Does it include mounting hardware?
Pioneer cables often include common brackets, grommets and ends where applicable for the application; included hardware can vary by fitment.
