Throttle pedal and cable
Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2014 1:39 am
Hi all
ok, so today we picked up the other Corsa. For those who are not aware, last week I got the wife a £500 corsa, and was terribly ripped off, today we got another with 25k less jiles, way better condition, etc.
First issue noted is the throttle pedal. Its very loose, and you need to put your foot down about an inch and then you suddenly have power, its actually difficult to drive.
Looking under the bonnet at the throttle cable where it meets the half circle thing, there is a fair bit of give on it.
I have read that I should ahve someone put their foot on the throttle fully, then adjust it, is that right?
