Removal
1. On early models, remove the air cleaner. On later models, disconnect the main air duct from the air cleaner, then disconnect the vacuum pipe and breather hose from the air block. Remove the three mounting screws, remove the air block together with the main air duct (see illustration).

2. Remove the clip on the end of the cable that is attached to the bracket on the carburetor, then pull the sealing ring off the bracket (see illustrations).


3. Pull the end of the cable off the throttle lever on the carburetor.

8. Make sure the cable is routed correctly as marked before removal.
9. Make sure the sealing ring is properly seated in the bulkhead hole.
Adjustment
10. Finally, check that the throttle mechanism is working properly and, if necessary, adjust the cable as described in the following points.
11. There are two cable adjustment points. A stop screw on the pedal arm to adjust the position of the fully released pedal limiter (see illustration). The bracket on the threaded part of the cable sheath in the bracket on the carburetor is designed to adjust the sag of the cable.

12. The cable must be adjusted so that when the gas pedal is released there is a slight sag in the cable on the carburetor side.
13. Check that the throttle valve opens fully when the gas pedal is fully depressed. Adjustment is made by moving the bracket on the cable housing and the pedal limiter lock screw.
