Pedal went to the floor and did not return. Removed carpet to be sure it was not hanging up. Disconnected pedal from linkage and there is no resistance in the mechanism. Where to start? Pedal cluster? Accelerator cable? Other? Novice at best when it comes to mechanical experience.

1. Check the throttle cable at the engine side. If there's lots of slop, it could very well be a broken cable. Replacing them is relatively easy.
2. Does the linkage seem intact? The pedal hinge is mounted to the floor with two bolts. It should spring back slightly on its own if the rubber is intact. It shouldn't wobble side-to-side much at all. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-2388-1512840054.jpg) #9 is your accelerator cable #7 is the female connector that joins the cable to the bracket #25 is the bracket that's been known to fail (this week for me) #6 is the rod from the bracket to the pedal. Check these things first. You'll need to pull the wooden pedal board to examine the linkage closely. |
