check your throttle cables

Postby JustinRhodes » Mon Nov 21, 2011 6:53 pm

today when i was out testing my truck after fixing the afc line i thought my truck ran away on me. i got on it a little bit in 4th and when i let off the truck still kept going. so i threw it up in 5th and stood on my brake and killed it out. To top it all off it was dark and i couldnt see nothing and i forgot my phone at the house :oops: after getting a ride to tacoclaws house he took me back over and found out my throttle was just stuck. got it home and got to checking it out and my throttle cable had 2 strands left and the frays was making it stick into the tube the throttle cable runs through. Everyone check your throttle cables :lol:

Pretty normal occurrence around these parts anyways isn't it, Justin.

I do believe I've contributed to the number myself. :lol:
