Accelerator Cable for the throttle control linkage, transmitting accelerator pedal movement to the carburettor throttle on the 2.25 litre petrol engine.

Frequently asked questions

What is the NRC8116 accelerator cable and what does it do?
The NRC8116 accelerator cable connects the throttle pedal to the carburettor throttle on the 2.25 litre petrol engine. The inner cable runs inside an outer sheath, pulling the throttle open as you press the pedal and letting the return spring close it when you lift off. It's routed for right-hand-drive.
Which models does this accelerator cable fit?
This accelerator cable fits the right-hand-drive Defender 90 and 110 and the Series 2 and 3, all with the 2.25 litre petrol engine. The length and routing are specific to right-hand-drive, so confirm your vehicle is RHD with the 2.25 petrol carburettor setup before ordering.
Why do accelerator cables fail and when should this be replaced?
Accelerator cables typically fail when the inner cable frays, stretches, or seizes inside a corroded outer sheath. Symptoms include a stiff or sticking pedal, slow throttle return, or the cable snapping completely. Replace it once the pedal feels notchy or the cable is frayed, since a stuck throttle is dangerous.
How do I make sure I'm not ordering the wrong-hand cable?
Check that your vehicle is right-hand-drive, since this cable is routed for the RHD pedal box and a left-hand-drive cable has a different length and run. Fitting the wrong-hand cable leaves it too short, too long, or badly routed, so match the cable to your steering side.
