An accelerator cable mechanically transfers pedal movement to the carburetor's throttle linkage. It opens the throttle as you press the pedal and allows it to close when you release it. Pioneer offers this cable as a high-quality replacement alternative, built to OE specs.
Built to OE specs: Pioneer makes its cables to original-equipment specifications.
Steel inner cable: A durable steel core carries pedal input through to the throttle.
Polymer outer housing: Shields the inner cable from corrosion and abrasion.
Hardware where applicable: Pioneer cables often include common brackets, grommets and ends when the application calls for them.
Signs this part may need replacing: The accelerator pedal feels stiff, sticks or binds. The throttle is slow to return to idle or responds late to the pedal. The cable is frayed or kinked, or its housing is cracked or worn. If the cable is the cause, this unit replaces it. Inspect the throttle linkage and return springs at the same time.
