Default 93 TV Cable

Someone please chime in for the adjustment procedure. I am just about ready to adjust it and I am getting worried after talking to Pete about trashing the tranny.

Thanks

Fred

As I mentioned on the phone, I am afraid to give Fred advice regarding a 93. I have never adjusted the asr type cables(92-93). I would prefer to give no advice rather than misinform.

The procedure in the FSM is somewhat complicated and requires an inch pound torque wrench. I will try to shoot a picture of the pages and post it if you are still interested, let me know.

You may want to browse around at this thread to see if any answers make you happy http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1672589

There seemed to be a lot of disagreement as to how to do the adjust but the consensus for your vintage seemed to be:

Unhook cruise control cable; unhook locking latch or push button on the throttle cable plastic gizmo; make sure throttle is fully closed and move cable to remove slack but not so much that it opens the throttle; make sure throttle fully opens when flooring the pedal; re-attach the cruise control cable.

Whatever you do, do it with the engine OFF. I tried adjusting mine and pulled back to far on the clamp with motor running and the engine raced to the rev limiter as I ran to turn the engine off. It blew the oil stick out of its seat. I almost wasted a good LT1

I believe that thread is discussing the foot throttle, not the TV cable
