Accelerator Cable links the accelerator pedal to the injection pump throttle lever, forming part of the throttle linkage on the 2.25L diesel engine.

Pressing the pedal pulls the cable to open the pump's governor/throttle lever and increase fuelling; releasing it lets the lever return to idle. The outer sheath is anchored at each end so the inner cable transmits the pedal movement to the pump.

Frequently asked questions

What does the accelerator cable (598852) do?

The accelerator cable links the accelerator pedal to the injection pump throttle lever on the 2.25 diesel engine. Pressing the pedal pulls the inner cable to open the pump's throttle lever and increase fuelling; releasing it lets the lever return to idle. The outer sheath is anchored at each end.

What are the signs the accelerator cable needs replacing?

A worn accelerator cable typically shows as a stiff or sticky pedal, a throttle that won't return cleanly to idle, or fraying inner strands. Cables stretch and corrode inside the outer sheath over time. Replace a frayed or seizing cable, as a sticking throttle is a safety risk.

Which vehicles use accelerator cable 598852?

Accelerator cable 598852 fits the 2.25 diesel engine on the Land Rover Series 2, 2A and 3, and early Defender with the cable throttle setup. Confirm your engine is the 2.25 diesel with cable-operated throttle, as later injection setups differ.

Can the accelerator cable be fitted at home?

Yes, the accelerator cable is typically a DIY job. The outer sheath is anchored at each end, and the inner connects to the pedal and the pump throttle lever, with adjustment at the pump end. Basic hand tools are usually enough. Set the cable so the throttle reaches idle and full travel cleanly.
