Pioneer Automotive Industries Carburetor Accelerator Cable P/N:CA-8719
Help keep a smooth, direct link between your foot and the throttle with the Pioneer Automotive Industries Accelerator Cable, part number CA-8808. It is a replacement cable for the 1990-1992 Oldsmobile Silhouette and the 1990-1992 Pontiac Trans Sport. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
The accelerator cable connects the accelerator pedal to the throttle linkage. It carries pedal movement so the throttle opens as you press down and returns when you lift off. Pioneer builds its cables as a high-quality replacement alternative.
Signs that an accelerator cable may need replacing include a sticking or binding pedal, a throttle that is slow to return to idle, a frayed or kinked cable, or excess slack that delays throttle response. These symptoms can have other causes, so check the pedal assembly and throttle linkage as well before you replace the cable.
What vehicles does the Pioneer CA-8808 fit?
It is listed for the 1990-1992 Oldsmobile Silhouette and the 1990-1992 Pontiac Trans Sport. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
What does an accelerator cable do?
It links the accelerator pedal to the throttle linkage. Pressing the pedal opens the throttle, and releasing it lets the throttle return.
What is the CA-8808 cable made of?
It uses a durable steel inner cable inside a polymer outer housing. The housing protects the cable from corrosion and abrasion.
Does it come with brackets or grommets?
Pioneer cables often include common brackets, grommets and ends where the application calls for them. Compare the part with your original cable before you install it.
What are signs of a worn accelerator cable?
Signs include a sticking or stiff pedal, a throttle that is slow to return to idle, a frayed cable, or delayed response. Diagnose the cause first, because the pedal or throttle linkage can also be involved.
