Gas Pedal

I saw i post about using zip ties to tighten up the throttle linkage behind the gas pedal but i can seem to find it so if anyone could help explain to me where exactly i need to tie it up to i would greatly appreciate it.

Look up to the top of the pedal assembly and you'll see a spring coming out of it. Now lift the pedal all the way up off the floor and put zip ties around any cable that protrudes from the spring.

Use the search button at the top of the pane and enter throttle cable mod.
You're sure to find pics.

SEARCHY SEARCHY OP

Just a note though. It DOES NOT add HP, and does not make the truck go faster. It only shortens the slack on the cable allowing for quicker response for acceleration. Those that think it makes their truck go faster also have the tornado installed, along with running Zmax, and have NOS decals.
