Parking
If the throttle pedal has excessive play due to cable
stretch or cable misadjustment, it will cause a delay in
throttle speed. Also, the throttle may not open fully.
If the throttle pedal has no play, the throttle may be
hard to control, and the idle speed may be erratic.
Check the throttle pedal play periodically in
accordance with the Periodic Maintenance Chart and
adjust the play if necessary.

2. Put the gear shift lever in the N (Neutral) position.
3. Start the engine, and warm it up thoroughly.

With the choke control pushed in, the choke plunger
must be seated on the fuel passage way in the

passage way inside the carburetor (not enough cable
