Hi,

Advice required, had a brown trouser moment Friday morn, on way to work in the Tusc, accelerator suddenly went flat to ground. Pulled over, depressed pedal many times, and been ok since. Is is advisable to change cable anyway, or not.

Thanks

Dave

The bushings for the pivot shaft of the pedal can get corroded.
Spray with WD40 and work the pedal should free it.

There was a thread a few days ago with more info but I cant find it.
