    Hi all!

    Could someone please tell me where the adjustment is to remove some of the play from the gas pedal? Is it in the engine compartment or at the pedal?

    Thanks!
    Wes

    In the engine compartment, in the middle of the engine. Easier to remove the oil filter to get to it. It's an adjuster in the end of the throttle cable housing that screws into a part of the intake manifold.

    Make sure you don't adjust it incorrectly. If you reach full throttle at the butterfly before the pedal hits the stop underneath it, you will stretch and maybe break your cable.
