Do (cold engine off) put a Q tip drop or spray of like WD-40 on these things when extended on the cable or wire all over. Hood release, trunk/hatches gas doors - anywhere. Gas pedal on inside too up and under. When these things break they are a PITA to correct vs a few seconds of prevention. Not seen on any list of routine service - just do it, T Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Jun 14, 2014, 1:05 AM Post #4 of 4 (1048 views) Re: gas pedal Sign In Does the pedal feel the same whether the engine is running or not? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
