gas pedal lag
Just a general question.... My gas pedal has about a half inch or so or play before actually getting any throttle response. It has been like this since i bought the car new and im wondering if its normal for our cars or if mine needs adjustment....
Any input is greatly appreciated!!!

RE: gas pedal lag
Mine's the same way. Not quite 1/2 an inch though. I inserted a spacer on the
gas pedal arm. If you get under there with a good light you'll see where the arm hits
the housing when you push down on the pedal and let off.
I just got a little piece of rubber and taped it to the arm so it hits the housing a
little sooner. When you look at it you'll know exactly what I mean and did.
