  • 96 throttle body cable

    Is there a way to adjust the tension on this cable? I feel like I have some slack in mine and I want to make it tighter....everything I read about is regarding 99+ driveby wires that can't be adjusted....Im sure there is something that we can do with our cables to tighten them up though?

    I just moved my bracket up some to take the slack out, I think I just rebolted it flipped upside down and there is one bolt holding the bracket but it lets me adjust the tension real easy. I just tap the gas and it will go. I had to do this anyway because I switched to a A4 TB(A4 and M5 TB''s are diferent) , when I still had a M5 TB on there from when I did a M5 to A4 swap. There was too much slack for the A4 TB I was using so I had to do something. So I flipped the bracket upside down and used 1 bolt to hold it, which works fine, haven't had any problems in 6 months or so.

                    I took out my cruise control thats why there is only one. They slide out pretty easy.
