Kenmore / Sears Control Cable

This is a genuine replacement OEM throttle control cable. The throttle control cable is comprised of an internal wire that slides through the external housing. Force is transferred from the accelerator pedal to the control linkage mounted to the throttle body from this sliding movement. If constant speed is not being maintained from the cruise control or delays starting, stopping, or jerking, then it may be time to replace the throttle control. To replace the throttle control a pair of pliers is needed. Remove the cable housing using pliers. The housings will swivel off the base and slide down the cable. Next, thread the cable wire through the housing. Locate the wire base on the back of the engine and run the cable through the throttle base and throttle arm. With the throttle all the way down, slide the cable through the housing and into the handle unit to attach it to the throttle handle. Pull the cable with a pair of pliers to make it tight and turn the lock screw. Replace the throttle to test the tension. If the mower, edger, or trimmer is running too high then loosen the cable.This throttle control works with lawn mowers, edgers, and trimmers. This is an OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer and sold individually.
