Chevrolet Astro Throttle Cable
Chevrolet Astro Throttle Cable offers the simple yet effective benefit of establishing a reliable link between the gas pedal and the throttle plate, instantly turning the driver's foot movement into engine air flow. Comprising flexible braided steel, this Throttle Cable starts at the pedal and runs straight through the firewall to the throttle body, where it pulls open a shaft on which a butterfly valve is mounted, letting more air in as the Powertrain Control Module lengthens the injector pulse for balanced fuel. Prior to the widespread adoption of the throttle body injection applied on the Astro, the Throttle Cable configuration was retained in order to work with existing air cleaner and intake configurations while still enabling better cold starts, upgraded mileage, and better emissions compared to carburetors. A later update from Chevrolet added electronic throttle control. This replaces the traditional Throttle Cable with two sensors on the pedal and a motorized blade. This helps the traction and stability programs, cancels sticking linkage when the cutter gets trapped, and allows finer idle control via the idle air control port. This is due to there being no longer any Throttle Cable in this drive by wire system. The main difference is obvious, mechanical cable operation versus electronic precision, but many drivers like the feel and easy service of the original Chevrolet system that kept the Astro responsive for decades.
Each OEM Chevrolet Astro Throttle Cable we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
Chevrolet Astro Throttle Cable Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove and install the Throttle Cable on Chevrolet Astro?A:It has the cable type of throttle control system that does not have any linkage adjustments; hence, only a specific replacement part would work in this case. When working on the throttle controls, care should be taken to restore all linkages and cables as they were removed and to ensure there is no rubbing or binding. Servicing the throttle cable calls for retention of the retainer with the tangs secured over the head of the stud, expanding and locking down the locking tangs in the conduit fitting at both ends of the cable into their attaching holes, ensuring that braid doesn't touch dash sealer on front side during assembly, repair or replacement and avoiding routing flexible parts within 2" of throttle linkage moving parts outward of support bracket unless routing is positively controlled. Servicing the accelerator pedal requires that there be no insulation between mounting surface of support and dash panel, while carpet and padding must be laid flat without wrinkles or bunching in pedal and tunnel areas, slipping the throttle control cable through orifice in rod slot and then installing retainer on rod (ensuring that it seats correctly and keeps cable from getting kinked or damaged) as well as operating freely without binding throughout closed throttle to wide open throttle travel when all components of acceleration linkage are secured. Removing it entails disconnecting battery negative terminal cable from it's terminal post, removing air cleaner housing adapter, locating forward end of throttle cable at engine; popping retaining clip on end of throttle linkage stud loose with a small screwdriver; detaching retainer from throttle lever stud; disconnecting throttle cable from notch on throttle valve; pinching two locking tabs together on ferrule pulling cable through hole in bracket; locating upper end of accelerator pedal lever by pushing small plastic brush out top; pushing lever forward lifting cable free from slot in top of lever; positioning soles immediately above and ahead upper end where comes through firewall: pull large rubber washer loose pinch locking tabs together pull cable through firewall; finally, installation is the reverse of removal.
