hey guys i just realized when i was on the freeway today that my throttle body doesnt want o open all the way, i tried to put my pedal all the way on the floor and i couldnt. Does any1 know how to soften the gas pedal btw i have a 03 es a/t

 

nah but this is the first time

 

hmmm........happens to me all the time.....the carpet gets in the way,lmao!! ......

but seriously i dont know...have u tightened the cable?

 

check the pedal line to see if it off track or maybe the tensioner on the TB is off....

 

Just so you know, you can't slam it to the "floor". Look under the pedal!

 

b4 the new manny i open my throttle to the limit, i think is tensioner on the TB is off, how can i correct that??

 

loosen the 10mm bolts and adjust the TB cable--if the car is running move the cable slowly until it revs up... otherwise use one of the OBD-II tools which can do real time datalogging and it will have a screen where you can monitor throttle position... move it until you hit %99/100.

leave the rubber piece on the floor... with a tightened cable it seemed almost like you could snap the cable--or at the very least put a lot of unnecessary stress on it by slamming it without that stopper in place.

 

what i do is move it to the left as much as it needs to remove the play in the cable

Good to hear man!
