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.

The later 914s had a secondary throttle spring wound around the shaft of the throttle body. If the main spring between the arm and the tin broke, the secondary one was there to make the throttle return. This was done by VW to cure runaway engine RPM complaints.
For safety purposes, I would suggest trying to find a 1.7 throttle body with the secondary return spring. |
