Detailed Description
Pioneer Cables CA-8682 is engineered for direct replacement in Ford F-250, Ford F-350, Ford Bronco, Ford F-150, and Ford E-350 Econoline applications that use a bullet-to-socket accelerator cable layout. The OE-style construction supports reliable throttle linkage movement, while the protective outer jacket helps reduce wear from heat, road debris, and repeated pedal operation. This part cross-references Continental 61353 for the same application.
Use CA-8682 when replacing a worn or stretched carburetor accelerator cable on compatible Ford trucks and vans from the late 1980s through the 1990s. The part number CA-8682 is also referenced in interchange listings for several related aftermarket and OE replacement numbers.
What This Cable Helps Address
- Sticking or sluggish throttle pedal return
- Excessive cable play from stretch or wear
- Frayed or corroded accelerator cable housing
- Inconsistent carburetor throttle opening
- Throttle response issues caused by damaged linkage cable routing
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify end styles, cable length, and routing before installation. Confirm the vehicle uses a bullet end on one side and a socket end on the other, and compare the existing cable length to the listed application notes. For best results, inspect throttle linkage, brackets, and pedal connection points for wear before installing the new cable.
Quality Assurance
Pioneer Cables manufactures this replacement cable to OE specifications using a steel inner cable and polymer outer housing for durability and long service life in normal operating conditions.
