'88 5KSQ Accelerator Linkage Problem

[Huw Powell]

open hood, get a helper, observe linkage action while they slowly
depress pedal under your instruction.  You shuld be able to see where
the problem lies (like if the cable doesn't move for that 1st inch,
prob. is at pedal end) by looking at what moves or binds and when.
