Pioneer Automotive Industries Carburetor Accelerator Cable P/N:CA-8882
Keep a smooth, responsive link between your foot and the carburetor with the Pioneer Carburetor Accelerator Cable CA-8798. It is a replacement accelerator cable for the 1981-1987 Chevrolet Chevette and the 1981-1987 Pontiac T1000, and it is made to OE specifications.
The accelerator cable connects the gas pedal to the carburetor's throttle linkage. It pulls the throttle open as you press the pedal and lets it close again when you lift off.
Signs this part may need replacing: The pedal may stick or feel stiff, the throttle may be slow to return to idle, or the cable may be frayed or kinked. A broken cable can also leave no throttle response. If a worn cable is the cause, this part replaces it. Inspect the pedal and throttle linkage at the same time.
See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details and the full application list.
