OK, so a little while ago I noticed that my "stiff" gas pedal was starting to stick a little bit. "That's OK," I thought, "I was planning on rebuilding my pedal cluster anyways." So I start planning the project and start driving w/out shoes so I can pull the pedal up if need be. Well over the weekend, I am driving on the 210 and all of a sudden I notice I am still accelerating and the pedal is either already up or won't return. So I shut off the car coast to a stop and get a tow home.
Turns out it is not the pedal cluster - which I suspected by now - but rather my accelerator cable (somehow) has become stuck in its sheath. This is not to bad, but as I am working in the engine bay my mounting bracket for the accelerator cable breaks off and takes the lip of the case off. Two questions, (1) is this something I can (and should) reattach? (2) What are some other set-ups people have to mount a bracket for the throttle cable? And the pictures (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2380/1714253247_184fae3bf4.jpg) (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2265/1714246293_fb8b470cac.jpg) (IMG:http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2343/1715106794_c9a580562a.jpg) |

bracket to the firewall? nope....the cable comes out of the lower firewall, between the rubber seal and tin and to the red bracket mounted on top of the case and then to the linkage crossbar.
