1987 Ford F150 5.0- accelerator cable
I love this old beater truck, I do. It's reliable and tough as nails, in fact, nails often use the analogy that something is as tough as this '87 Ford. However, I now have to replace the throttle cable and this is going to be an entirely new experience for me. Wondering if there is any other procedures I need to be aware of when doing this work, other than just removing and replacing...

I think that's all there is to it. I don't right off know of any adjustments.

Just replaced the cable on my '92 a few weeks ago. Literally took about 10 minutes. Not a bad job at all. There were 2 different lengths to choose from, for my model. I had to take it off and measure it, then order one, since the parts store didn't have them in stock. Not sure if yours is much different than mine, but it was straight forward and super easy to change out.
