Q: How do you remove and install the accelerator cable on Honda Passport?
A: In order to get rid of the accelerator cable it is required to take out the mounting bracket from the valve cover and also to undo it with the cable with any other brackets. Following that, turn the throttle valve anti-clockwise and pull the cable end out of the slot. Remove the screws and the clips on the meanwhile of the car at the lower instrument trim panel at the side of the driver and then take out the trim piece. Take the cable end out and up from accelerator pedal recess; to separate the cable from the firewall, push the assembly through from the inside of the passengers' compartment. For installation, reverse the above process and make flexible components not to be routed within two inches of the moving parts unless provided for control. After installation of the new pedal, that is recommended for the test drive to confirm that there is no binding then fully depress and release the accelerator pedal. If necessary, use the sealant around the accelerator cable at the engine side of the firewall so that water does not penetrate the passenger compartment. The cable housing is free play adjustable, one needs to turn the cable bracket screw to move the housing up or down until the throttle valve closes properly.
