Then, pull off the cruise control cable and accelerator control cable from the Throttle Body lever , and disconnect the iac valve electrical connector and tp sensor electrical connector. First, remove the fuel feed and return lines from the retainer of the accelerator controls cable bracket, then remove the transaxle shift cable clip and the Throttle Body from the water crossover. Following that, take off accelerator controls cable bracket from the Throttle Body. For installation, do not use a cleaner with a methyl ethyl ketone but use a carburetor cleaner for dislodging deposits. Put on new Throttle Body Gasket to Throttle Body and accelerate cable bracket, bolts tightened to 12 n.m (106 lb in). Bolt the Throttle Body to the Throttle Body spacer with bolts. Finalize by tightening the two lower bolts a little, and then tighten the entire group to 12 n.m (106 lb in). Re-hook the iac valve electrical connector and tp sensor electrical connector and install the accelerator control cable and cruise control cable at the Throttle Body lever.
