ON TRUCKS WITH THE 7.0 LITRE EFI GASOLINE ENGINES, THE THROTTLE CABLE FROM THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO THE GOVERNOR ASSEMBLY MAY HAVE BEEN KINKED DURING ASSEMBLY. THIS WOULD CAUSE EXCESSIVE WEAR OF THE CABLE HOUSING INNER LINER, WHICH COULD RESULT IN EITHER FRACTURE OR STICKING OF THE CABLE. IF THE CABLE FRACTURES, THE ENGINE SPEED WILL RETURN TO IDLE. IF THE CABLE STICKS, THE THROTTLE WILL REMAIN IN THE POSITION IT WAS IN WHEN STICKING OCCURRED AND COULD RESULT IN A VEHICLE ACCIDENT. CORRECTION: THE GOVERNOR ASSEMBLY WHICH INCLUDES THE THROTTLE CABLE WILL BE REPLACED WITH A REVISED DESIGN.
