Throttle Lever Freeplay Inspection

Throttle lever freeplay is the gap created between the throttle lever and throttle block, as you push the throttle lever, prior to the throttle cable opening the throttle body plates. Excessive freeplay in the throttle cable may cause the throttle release switch to activate, potentially stalling the engine or preventing the engine from starting.

To inspect throttle lever freeplay, follow these steps:
  1. Stop the engine.
  2. Slightly push the throttle lever until you feel the cable tension increase (throttle plates opening).
  3. Insert the blade of a feeler gauge between the throttle lever and throttle block. The gap must be .009-.029 in. (0.25-0.76 mm).
  4. Adjust freeplay if the gap does not meet specification.
