2000 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Throttle Cable Parts and Q&A

• Q: How to replace the throttle cable on 2000 Chevrolet Monte Carlo?

  A: A replacement of the throttle cable demands first removal of the injector sight shield and left instrument panel sound insulator. The throttle cable requires detachment from the accelerator pedal by carefully pushing through the bulkhead while pressing the cable cover tangs. After disconnecting the cable first from the retaining clips and then from the throttle body lever and throttle cable bracket remove it from the vehicle while checking the cable route for installation. Installation should include securing flexible system components when routing them at least 50 mm (2 in) from moving parts to avoid interference or damage. The throttle requires free movement without any constraints when it moves from complete closure to wide-open position. Fit the throttle cable according to the verified routing before inserting it through the bulkhead and placing the snap retainer in the bulkhead position. The throttle cable should pass through the slot on the accelerator pedal lever before seating the snap retainer. Complete throttle operation should be checked by testing the accelerator pedal while confirming that carpet material near the pedal does not cause any interference. After securing the throttle cable to the throttle body lever and the throttle cable bracket you should install it in both retaining clips. Reinstall both the left instrument panel sound insulator along with the injector sight shield.
