  2. Start the engine, and turn the main switch ON. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm with no load in Park or Neutral until the radiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
  3. Measure the amount of movement of the output linkage (B) until the engine speed starts to increase. At first, the output linkage should be located at the fully closed position (C). The free play (D) should be 3.75+/-0.5 mm (0.15+/-0.02 in.).
  4. If the free play is not within specification, move the cable to the point where the engine speed starts to increase, and tighten the locknut (A) and adjusting nut (B).
