Gas pedal adjustment

Anyone had an issue with the gas pedal not going to the floor far enough. The reason for the question is that I have been loggind my ECU via EcuScan and noticed the TPS % is 98.6 or 99 most of the time when I am at WOT. The only time I get 100 is when I force my foot through the firewall (Figuratively). My thought is the pedal stopper is too high. I haven't look at it, but is it a screw type of adjustment?

Thanks in advance.

It should be all the way down. I think it just kinda snaps in there... you may also make sure the carpet/floormat isnt getting in the way.

I will check after work, but I keep forgetting. Hard to log when you aren't hitting 100%!!

So you are saying yours had to much slack in the line and you took that out via the slide adjustment on the intake.

You should probably do that anyways. Leave a little bit of slack but normally from the factory they have alot.
