gas pedal sticks
my gas pedal sticks most of the time, any idea how to get that fixed, and how much it will cost?

RE: gas pedal sticks
when i was trying to bend my gas pedal closer to the brake for heel and toe, it bound a little, there is a chance that the same thing is happening to yours. try to figure out if its the pedal sticking, or the cable. it could be as simple as spraying the cable with WD-40.

RE: gas pedal sticks
hey sac i know i have heard of ppl using heal toe and i understand how to but what for..what instances would u use it?

RE: gas pedal sticks
the only actual time I would ever use it is in circuit racing. daily driving and auto-x are too fast paced for H/T. its used when coming in fast to a tight corner, and you need to downshift and accelerate once you clear it. you push in the clutch, press the brake while downshifting, and as you hit the corner, you reach over and hit the gas with your heel, so that the revs are up when you get done shifting down and release the clutch pedal.

mine stuck recently, and it was the molded peice that penetrates the fire wall broke causing it to kink

RE: gas pedal sticks
This may really sound silly but Ive had the pedal stick a couple of times on me and come to find out it was the pedal wedged down by the floor mat.

RE: gas pedal sticks
I find that it's too hard for me to heel-toe with my big-ass size 13's, so I just nail the gas real quick, then downshift and brake, and I still hit the rev match just fine... it takes a couple tries to get the timing just right, cause you have to be fast.

RE: gas pedal sticks
i usually just abandon the brake for a split second, hit the gas (love that 9# flywheel:D), and get back to braking. that works great. not as good as the heel/toes ive pulled off, but its fine for me. maybe with the steering wheel up higher.

RE: gas pedal sticks
Yeah, but 4G base steering wheels don't tilt.... bit of a problem sometimes. I just love how low and flat the car is though... It's like a big go kart
