Yeeeeshh!!!  THAT's an "interesting" theory!!!  Wow. What kind of car is it?  Auto or manual transmission? The 1st gen Camaros with a scattershield are susceptible to the over zealous use of a "clutch fork clearance tool" (aka hammer).  And the result is that the floorboard is clearanced too much just under the acc. pedal, which interferes with full travel. I had a customer with this issue.  He thought I was an amazing mechanic once he got the car back.  :-)  -- When Satan is knocking at your door, simply say, "Jesus, could you get that for me?" http://www.christianet.com Check out my webpage at http://www.ProStreetCar.com TREMEC Distributor at http://www.5speedTransmissions.com Team Chevelle member #1778 (Gold), ACES member #1377 Hoosier State Chevelle Assoc (http://www.IndianaChevelles.com) #6 James Strunk wrote: Hi everyone,can anyone help me?,I purchased a used car recently,the pass.frt. parking light has never worked,and also the acc. pedal is quite close to the floor, resulting in only using part throttle under the hood,now here is where it gets weird,my local auto zone manager says that because of a bad ground,which is responsible for no parking light,the cars throttle has been acting as a ground,which meant the cable has been heating up,causing the cable to STRETCH resulting in the acc. pedal to sag to the floor? has ANYBODY ever heard of such a claim? please let me here from anybody   Checked by AVG Free Edition.
