GMC Jimmy Throttle Cable
GMC Jimmy Throttle Cable brings direct pedal feel by mechanically connecting the driver's accelerator to the throttle plate. The GMC Jimmy Throttle Cable makes engine response immediate and predictable. In early GMC sport utility years, this Throttle Cable applied a braided steel core sliding in a flexible jacket to pull the butterfly valve open, while return springs snapped the butterfly valve shut when foot pressure was eased. The action of the Throttle Cable simultaneously turned the throttle shaft, enabled the Throttle Position Sensor to report to the PCM, and allowed the computer to enrich the fuel via Throttle Body Injection for quicker starts, smoother cruising, and lower emissions. Later, many Jimmy models switched to electronic drive by wire, which replaces the traditional Throttle Cable with pedal sensors and a small electric motor incorporating the functions of traction and stability, eliminating issues such as sticking or stretch. Yet on classic Jimmy editions, a worn Throttle Cable can still cause rough idle, hesitation, or limited power, so knowing the simple pull and return design is still useful to owners of aging GMC trucks.
Each OEM GMC Jimmy 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.
