    Minsan matigas ung gas pedal, kahit na nilagyan na ng WD40 ung cable niya. Ano po kaya problema o remedyo? TIA.

    Check your spring usually may spring yan. Or baka yung pedal mismo may bushing sa likod that needs to be lubricated. WD40 on the cable won't do much kung yung cable is exposed din lang (usually rubber sheath lang din yon kaya not much lubrication).

    Also, WD40 attracts dirt. You will need to clean it again later on.

    check mo din sir. pero if the problem persists, you might be needing a cleaning of the carbs or if fuel injected then throttle body assembly.

    WD40 is a water dispersant it is not a lubricant. You can use grease (if you have some at home). Light grease would be ideal but heavier ones work also.

    Kung matigas yung spring, baka yun talaga ang setting niya.

    palit cable na po iyan...

    pag lagay mo ng grease eh sa bugad lang at hindi umaabot sa kaloob-looban ng cable...

    delicado pag nagmamaneho at tumatakbo ang kotse tapos na-ipit na naka depressed ang accelerator...

    tanong ko lang, ang diesel ba usually mas matigas ang gas pedal at mas hindi responsive compared sa gas engines?Parang pigil kasi arangkada ng everest ko compared sa crv na konting tapak lang sumisipa na. Yung innova diesel mas responsive ang accelerator pedal. Ano kaya pwede gawin para mas responsive ang pedal? nag adjust nako ng cable slack pero ganun parin, nung una kasi malaki ang clearance ng cable
