[V8] Brake Servo & Sticking Throttle

[bw at UDel.Edu]

I have dealt with a sticking throttle cable problem that was caused by the metal 
ferrel end of the cable pulling loose from its attachment going thru the fire wall. 
The 1/2" long ferrel then presses against the engine side of the fire wall, basically 
lengthening the cable housing by 1/2" and causing the cable to hold the trottle 
open even at idle. This can be checked by looking above the gas pedal where the 
cable goes thru the wall. Another possible cause for what can be called a sticking 
trottle.      Bob Williams
