Can anyone tell me how do I go about adjusting the gas pedal, The pedal on my 89T is alittle close to the floor and i hate it. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

Check under the dash area, and make sure your linkage is in proper tension.

 

[MK3Brent]

Can you pull the pedal towards you?

also check and see if you get full throttle when the pedal is to the floor, i had a buch of play in mine.

the pedal is pretty firm and i really can't pull it towards me. I just thought there was a way of adjusting the pedal to bring up a bi more.. Thanks for the input guys

 

[Racerstud2004]

you might be able to bend it, if there is no adjustment

 

[BlackWidTan]

ok Racerstud, i'll try that. i thought there was some screw or some wire i could ease up and that would cause the pedal to rise.

The pedal is adjusted from the throttle body side, underneath the pedal doesn't do shit.

 

[Racerstud2004]

it can ony be adjusted to a point cuz the cable is only so long

 

[MK3Brent]

well.i try pushing the cable back in and it's harder then crap....and on my SCA i dunno if that black rubber thing around the cable supposed to be stuck to it or not. mines separted from it...that good?

that is the cruise control linkage you're talking about I think.



Shouldn't be hard if it's the throttle cable.

 

[MK3Brent]

dirty linkage... I used some wd40 and carefully move the cable in and out.

Move the springs, and grease them up.

On mine when I had play in the pedal... there was a black rubber spacer missing off the throttle linkage assembly on top of the valve cover. Make sure that the black spacer is there and go from there. If its not, get one from the dealer or become creative...because without it, you are losing HP due to a lack of full throttle.

Well.... it felt like butter for a month or so, then back to kinda heavy.

will adjusting the screws on the throttlebody do anything to your timing?

my bad. i meant the bolts not on the tb but on that other thing. i dont know what its called. someone help me out

 

[toyoguru]

TPS? or are you talking about the idle screw

 

[chrono]

i mean the bolts that go with the throttle cable. on a 7m-ge. the throttle cable ends up on these brackets that have screws that you can tighten and loosen. if you do that, does it affect the timing?

 

[conundrum07]

The throttle has nothing to do with timing

 

[chrono]

messed up again. sorry guys. i meant to say idle.
