My gas pedal is very stiff and sometimes gets stuck so that it revs on it's own.

I tried many things that were stated in my previous thread like greasing the throttle cable and cleaning out the TB/IM.

What else can I do? Is it pedal related then?

Please help It is the only annoying thing on my crx and if it gets fixed, my life would be wayyy better

 

I would replace the throttle cable

 

I agree...

When you cleaned out the T/B, did you notice the throttle plate sticking/scraping against the side walls at all? Did the plate seem to move freely?

 

The butterfly moved around very freely.

 

How much does a throttle cable cost?

 

How can I tell the throttle cable needs to be replace?

 

change the thorttle cable
that happened on my integra

 

Did you get it fixed yet? I'm having a similar problem and I'm having trouble fixing it as well.

 

make sure you dont have aftermarket pedals that are getting the bolts stuck in the floor carpeting. Ryan

PS, experienced this before

happened to me too. scary stuff.

 

The throttle cleaner cleaned it and it doesn't stick. Pedal still feels stiff but it gets better with the cleaner.

After a week or two it gets all gunky again. That probably has to do with the POS filter on the generic short ram I have.

 

When I first put in my b16, it had a stuck t body. You had to give it a swift rev to free it up in the morning. It turned out it was too closed, and needed to be adjusted back a hair. Its perfect now. Ryan
