New throttle installed
1722
36
Had a bad case of sticky pedal going 
Had a new one put in on Monday:thumb:
Since the affects were gradual I had no idea how much of a PITA it really was. The smooth silky feeling is back and IMO the response (albeit still DBW) is so much better. Plus my mileage has improved a good 1.5 mpg since I no longer push past the needed level for acceleration.
Let's hope this one doesn't act up, at least until the "real fix" is released

Good luck! Keep the pedal group posted on your progress.

I'd be willing to bet that it was horse manure under the pedal causing the problem :yikes:

Onions and cheese whiz? uhg!
One day you'll leave that bummbleville of Rochester, and have a good ole philly cheesesteak. Then you'll understand all about cheese whiz and fried onions. Until then, you haven't really lived my friend

Hold the phone... I've done it up with real philly cheesesteak before! It's a fine item indeed, but I was envisioning someone eating raw onions like crackers while applying a thick strand-like covering of cheese whiz to it.

No way...............grilled and greasy is the only way I take my original with:thumb: .... (original = whiz....with = onions)

No I was talking a good old fashioned Philadelphia cheesesteak...which any true Philadelphian will tell you should have fried onions and cheezewhiz...
At Pat's that is a "cheese wit" ("wit" as in with fried onions and always with cheezewhiz)

That's scary:yikes: 100 miles away and we're thinking the same
Please don't tell me you are my evil twin:eeps: I guess that would only be possible if I was in vitro for an extra 4 years:dunno:

Heck I am 5,000 miles away and I was thinking "cheese wit" too:thumb:
If Mike is your evil twin then I am.....wait don't answer that.
Oh, good luck on the throttle (token non-hijack comment)
