Power Power Power! (and a fix)

Removing that accelerator thing was amazing. SoDak now snaps my neck in all 4 gears when the auto tranny shifts. Sheesh! I disassembled, cleaned and reassembled injector #1 and found my leak still there!?! Turns out that the little rubber cap on the fuel return line had a crack in it and that was what was leaking. Oh well, it's fixed at least. Happy motoring again...

Please, pray tell, what accelerator thing? I can't find the article about it. Thanks. Regards, Eric

There is a plastic "stop" underneath the accelerator pedal. I think it was designed to give resistance for the transmission "kick-down" function.

Thanks. I think maybe I don't have one cause mine is a stick. Either that or I'm not looking in the right spot. There is a big round circle molded into the arm of the accelerator pedal. Is that where it would be? Could you post a pic when you have a chance?
Thank you very much for this blog. It's the reason why I've decided to keep this car that I do dearly love but feared I wasn't up to the up keep of. With your blog's help, I think I can do it now! Regards, Eric
