Gas Petal Tension
#1
Gas Petal Tension
I have my hooked up max, its a 1995 GLE, and when i push the gas in not too hard in any matter. Its very simple to do, its very loose and take no effort to push it. I drove a 2000 Maxima GXE and the tension on the gas petal is very tight and ya kinda havedto "push it down". Is there anyway i can change the spring in the throddle. I popped the hood and there seems to be a large circular spring, is it look. How do i tighten the gas peddle tension.

I have the same complaint! My 98 SE's gas pedal is loose as hell. My mother had a 98 SE that she just turned it, the gas pedal on hers was tight and felt much better than mine. I tried tightening the thrttle cables under the hood, but all that did was increase my idle RPMs, didnt change tyhe gas pedal, so I put them back to how they were. I took a look under there and saw a large spring that is obviously our problem, the pedal rocks on that and it provides the tension. I didnt look into getting a new one because it seemed like it'd be a bi*** to replace. Ill live with it until an easier solution comes along.
