Cruise Control Servo Cable: Adjustments

Power Unit Adjustment
With air conditioner off and idle speed solenoid disconnected (if equipped), set curb hot idle speed to 500 RPM, then shut engine off. Unsnap swivel from ball stud, then hold chain taught. Center of swivel should extend 1/8 inch beyond center of ball stud. If not, remove swivel and chain assembly retainer, then position chain into swivel cavities which will give adjustment stated above. Reinstall retainer.

Engagement-Cruising Speed Zeroing
The only transducer adjustment possible is engagement-cruising speed zeroing. No adjustment should be performed unless the servo unit and brake release switches are properly adjusted and all vacuum lines are checked for kinks, leaks or punctures.
If cruising speed is lower than engagement speed, loosen orifice tube locknut and turn tube counterclockwise. If cruising speed is greater than engagement speed, turn orifice tube clockwise. Each 1/4 turn of orifice tube will alter engagement-cruising speed approximately one m.p.h.. After adjustment is completed, tighten locknut and test system at 50 m.p.h..
