Anything like a quickie lub on a 914 gas pedal? I'm new to 914 mechanicals. The gas pedal on my '74 is way too stiff. Is there a quick way to lub the gas pedal mechanism until I have the time to figure out how and what tear apart to do it right and/or replace anything? Thanks

Stiff or sticking petal, usually comes down to a worn petal assembly, the bearings are toast, and or plastic inside the cable is worn and broken. I should know. I have had both problems. The cable should never need lubing. You also want to check the petal push rod to be sure it is not bent. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
