Default Wot?

Quick question - have any of you adjusted your throttle linkage? I have to press the accelerator pedal with a lot of might to get my 89 to take off. While its in paint getting detailed I thought I would look into this. Don't want to go poking in there blind if I can get some insight here. Thanks Eddy

Don't know how your throttle cable is, but I had to lubricate the one on my Blazer with TPI from a Vette and now it is working smooth. Although, I was using the Blazer throttle cable.
