Sticky Pedal
Got another weird problem on my 87 5.0. I used a commercial engine cleaner on her yesterday. Got the engine looking nice for the most part, and now my gas pedal sticks. Not while I'm giving her gas, just on the initial push, and every time i let go of the pedal and press down again during shifting. Almost seems like it is stuck until you give it enough pressure to get past that initial stick. Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

If lubing the throttle body shaft does not fix it.
Check the blade to see if it's getting stuck in the throttle bore.
Cleaning the black **** inside should help.
If it is the throttle blade and cleaning doesn't help. You may have to add a bit of throttle stop, just a touch, like 1/8th of a turn.
