my gas pedal seems to stick, and takes a little more force to push it down initially. i thought it might be the spring on the throttle body that was sticking, but i oiled that with some WD40, and it didn't work. i don't think it is the throttle cable itself because this doesn't happen when the car is off, only when it is running.
does anybody have any idea why this is happening? |

um, kink/pinch in the cable itself maybe? is it fine if you push the thorttel open by hand? if so then its an issue with the pedel or spring on the pedel.
