I can't get the freaking clevis snapped back in underneath the tunnel to the pedal assembly. Is there a secret to this? I'm taking it needs to be installed from the passenger side - the way it came out?

I use a zip tie to hold it in the right place and slowly tighten the tie. You will have to force it all the way on on using brute strength or pliers but the zip tie keeps everything in place.

I leave the tie on to be sure the clip does not pop up and snag the accelerator cable.

Just be careful of the zip tie falling down the cable. I now have a loose zip tie in my tunnel....

I tried that method but it fell off. But I still had a miracle and it went on without the zip tie. In less than 5 minutes after fighting an hour with it the other day.
