Problem: While operating the engine in reverse gear, engine torque causes the engine to roll, causing the throttle modulator cable assembly to contact the floor and bind the throttle cable holding the throttle in an open position.

Fix: Relocation of raised floor support hardware on the box portion of the motorhome.
