    I have a '99 Accord and I need some info on adjusting the throttle
    cable. The cable has some slack in it which causes the car to lurch
    from a stand still. Can give me some directions on how to take the slck
    in the cable? Thanks!

    Lock nut is right beside where the slack is. Back it off, snug up the
    other nut a few turns, then re-snug the lock nut. Leave a bit of droop
    in the cable because it will tighten in extreme cold weather. That would
    be dangerous.
