    How do I detach the sticking acclerator cable on Civic?
    Hi, was wondering if somebody could help me.

    I have a 1998 Civic Vti-S 5 door hatch but the trouble I have been having is a sticking accelerator cable. I wanted to get this fixed during the Christmas break so I can drive it to my new workplace but don't want to call out a mobile mechanic! I think there is a kink in the cable under the dash somewhere but I cannot detach the cable from the throttle quadrant, can't work out how! I can detach it from the pedal but that's it and even then the movement of the cable is slow. Any help would be much appreciated, especially with pics! Many thanks

    Civic cables sometime come out of a cable bracket on the driver's side of the engine. Follow the cable from the throttle linkage to the firewall. See if you can find a cable bracket not being used or other explanation for the problem.
