## What is wrong

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.
