Turbosleeper Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 So im looking into purchasing a 850 awd 5spd. The gas pedal is really firm and Im wondering if it is suppose to be so hard and can i just adjust the throttle cable to make it lighter on the foot? thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
project_850 Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 The throttle cables are different for auto and manual cars.. But it's also possible that the throttle cable needs replacement. There's some adjustment that can be made by tightening/loosening it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ipd Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 Probably needs the throttle body cleaned. One can of carb cleaner and a Tbody gasket later and you should be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
