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? |

hmm. its a long shot but do you have cruise control? exsplane sticks a little better maybe, does it just stick in up and hard to push down like you have to kinda shove it to get it lose or is it a constant when the motor is running, I dont really know though. its not gana be a spring if its just when the car is running, kinda why I would look at the cc, even though I highly doubt it would have anything to do with it. I dont know what all the cable goes though that could cause it to stick a bit.
