randomist 0 Posted August 9, 2006 bit of a strange one this, just had a new throttle cable put on my car & i swear it feels like its lost power! usually when i put my foot down & it hits 4k revs it's away like stint but it feels hesitant! found myself flooring the acelerator like you do & sitting there urging the car on like it was a 1 ltr corsa! pedal feels heavier too! i thought it might be because i've been riding my bike while i was waiting for the part so i was used to going bike fast but it definitely feels a bit sluggish. do any of you bikers find that your car feels slow after riding your bike? i've never had this happen before so it could all be in my head. plus it's a vr so it's not like it's an 8v (soz to all you 8v owners) the cable was fitted by a garage who does all the work on my car & they are excellent so i've kinda ruled that out. it's all very perplexing, going to give it a proper good hammer tomorrow & see if things improve.

aki 0 Posted August 9, 2006 hi the cable is adjustable by moving the small metal clip into grooves in the plastic end of the cable on the throttle body, check the throttle butterfly is fully open when the throttle pedal is on the floor if it isnt, theres your problem!! dont loose the clip!! andy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
