Chrysler PT Cruiser Accelerator Cable
The Chrysler PT Cruiser Accelerator Cable translates the pressure from the driver's foot into a corresponding movement of the throttle plate. This allows the delivery of the correct air fuel mixture to the engine for generation of power. The Accelerator Cable attaches the accelerator pedal to the throttle plate within the carburetor barrel. Consequently, when pressure is applied to the pedal, the plate is pulled open. Air streams through the venturi, vacuum pulls more fuel from the float bowl, and Chrysler picks up speed. The release of the Accelerator Cable causes the plate to close, and air supply is restricted and draws the fuel to idle levels. The early trims of the PT Cruiser made use of this simple Accelerator Cable, a characteristic of Chrysler that is famous for its feel and easy construction, and no style changes like electronic drive by wire are noted in the information. No matter the PT Cruiser year, all components are the same. The Accelerator Cable is made of steel. It is enclosed in a flexible sheath. End fittings anchor to the pedal arm and throttle lever. It creates a durable, low friction passage. This allows motion transfer in Chrysler engines. The routine smooth operation of this Accelerator Cable makes every Chrysler PT Cruiser responsive to driver inputs.

Chrysler PT Cruiser Accelerator Cable Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How do you remove and disconnect the throttle body and accelerator cable on Chrysler PT Cruiser?A:To begin, remove the throttle body/air intake plenum cover, which is secured by three rubber grommets on positioning pins; simply pull it straight up to detach. Next, rotate the throttle lever to the wide-open position and disengage the accelerator cable from the throttle lever cam by pulling it forward to create slack, then disconnect the cable end plug from its slot. Use a small screwdriver to pry the retaining tab away from the cable bracket, allowing you to slide the cable out. Then, pop open the cable clamp with the screwdriver and disengage the cable, noting its routing. Inside the vehicle, reach behind the accelerator pedal to push the retainer toward the rear, pop the cable retainer from the slot, and disconnect the accelerator cable from the top of the pedal assembly. Remove the horseshoe-shaped clip that holds the cable grommet in the firewall by sliding it straight up, then pop the grommet out and push the cable through the hole. Finally, installation follows the reverse order of removal.
