Default TB adjustment. ?????????


While reinstalling my 58mm ASM TB I must have pulled on the TB to hard because it's now to long. I can make the cable longer by pushing in the adjuster button but I can't figure out how to make the cable shorter. ???

Service manual page 5E2-105 says to "unlock throttle body cable adjuster by pulling up the locking tab" Well I don't see a locking tab as shown in the picture. Picture shows a locking tab but I have a button!!

Mine has a white plastic clip, close to the ASR, on the cable. You simply press in on the tab and adjust the cable leangth.

That is the button to release the cable.They can be a little hard to push I used some PB Blaster and a lot of pressure but it will release.It is spring loaded and after just push the pedal to the floor to adjust it.

I got it now. I wasn't pushing down hard enough. I ended up using a robogrip on it.
