1995 Ranger Accelerator

[jailescape]

So the accelerator on my '95 ranger sits way back. I think the spring in it or something is worn out because I am able to pull the pedal about 3, maybe 4, inches forward with my hand.

Is this a common occurrence and is there a way to fix it?

It's in the tech library too. It basically tightness up the cable for free.

Sent from the think n' stink.

That's too funny. I did that in my '94 about 10 years ago then replaced the cable last month and had to do the same thing again. I was sure there was a more 'professional' method that I wasn't understanding. Guess not

I just put three ties on the kick down & it worked perfectly.

I think the kickdown only runs from the TB to the trans, not to the pedal.

From what I saw (unless I did it wrong) it is one cable just one side is the throttle cable & the other is the kick down, as when I pulled the throttle up (away from the floor) one side of the cable became more visible.
