Full Throttle Question

Does anyone else have a pedal stop behind their gas pedal. I think my car used to be a rental before i bought it. It's like a plastic bumper on a stud thats pressed in the floor. I don't know any better so i don't want to take it out if it is doing something.

my car has one and i got it new....DO NOT...I repeat DO NOT remove it...it may cause extra tension on you throttle cbla causing it to snap...your car is at full throttle anyways when it hits the rubber stopper

yeah, this has been covered before, try a search..... but the previous thread came to the conclusion that the us lancer is at full throttle already and removing the stopper won't get you any benefit. you can tighten the cable and get better response time, but that is somewhat risky as well. like i said though, try a search because i know there is a thread about this somewhere

That doesn't mean it was a rental. My car has that, and I bought it new.
