Gas Pedal Sticking

check your throttle body/cable and move things around with your hands...everything should move smoothly and snap back into place after you take tension off.

also take off your intake piping and check around the butterfly valve(hopefully there isnt something there that is big enough to keep the valve from opening/closing smoothly..b/c that would mean it got past your filter.) good luck

oh i forgot to tell you that i had the same problem..and my issue was actually from my intake..the bolt on the hose clamp was touching the (whatever you call that cable assembly on the left of the throtte body) just slightly that make the throttle stick

same problem happened to me when i had my new tranny put in. when the guy put the intake back on the clamp was by the throttle cables, and the valve would always hit the screw.

While you have everything open, just go ahead and clean out the throttle body... instructions are available in the How-To's sticky.
