Is this old news? If so I apologize as I don't remember reading about it nor did I find it when doing a search.

Make : ISUZU Model : TROOPER Year : 1995
NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number : 04V199000 Recall Date : APR 19, 2004
Component: VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL:CABLES
Potential Number Of Units Affected : 72905
Summary:
ON CERTAIN SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, THE ACCELERATOR CABLE CAN STICK SO THAT THE ENGINE SPEED WILL NOT IMMEDIATELY DECREASE UPON RELEASE OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL.
Consequence:
THIS CAN CAUSE THE ACCELERATOR THROTTLE CABLE TO DELAY RPM AND VEHICLE SPEED REDUCTION FOR SEVERAL SECONDS AFTER THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS RELEASED, WHICH IN TURN, CAN LEAD TO A CRASH.
Remedy:
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE THROTTLE CABLE RUBBER BOOT. OWNER NOTIFICATION IS EXPECTED TO BEGIN DURING MAY 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT ISUZU AT 1-800-255-6727.
Notes:
CUSTOMERS CAN ALSO CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION’S AUTO SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-DASH-2-DOT (1-888-327-4236).


The above is from the NHTSA site and there is one for each year of the recall - http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/cars/p...2004&type=E&summary=true

hot damn, this will keep me from dousing my cable in WD40 now.

Calling isuzu today.

mine did get stuck wide open at 107,000 miles. i used to push the gas peddle in once or twice before i started it and one time it got stuck wide a$$ open, i had to take the key out of the ignition, [color:"brown"]I saw 7200 RPM!!![/color]. i had my mechanic replace the whole throttle cable. it wasn't to much.

And here I thought it was just me with a sticky cable, nice to see this come out

and i thought it was just me. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I called and the manager told me that the were no open recalls for 92-95 troopers.

You might try looking here:

You can print a copy of the NHTSA Recall and show it to them if you have to.

This appears to be a government ordered recall, not a voluntary recall.

Or you could just go to the link I already posted since it takes you right to the recalls in question. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Since owners won't be notified till May it is no surprise that the dealers may not be aware of this yet.

My cable has more dirt on it then any other part in my engine bay because of all the oil I spray on that damn thing <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" /> I called the 1800 # and the office is closed today <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/angry.gif" alt="" /> Thanks for the info

My Rodeo had the exact problem a couple months ago. I just tore off the rubble boot at the intake. The rubber boot had started to get tacky and gummed up on the cable.
