It seems like onli a littble for than 2 or 3 inches from freeplay where i can floor tha pedal......is this normal or is there sumting wrong.....



about this much travel.... (onli tha doted lines)


(freeplay) -------------------------------------- (floor)

 

"gas" pedal

 

Check the FSM or Haynes for freeplay limits and adjustments...

 

That is the vague-est question I've ever seen asked in my life....

 

You probably just have to adjust your throttle cable. Find it under the hood where it hooks up onto the intake. Right where it goes through the bracket there's an adjusting bolt. It's either that, or it needs adjusted under the pedal. I think those are the only 2 options.

 

want my 1 min of my life i spend here back,

 

tha cable needs to be ajustid, fo rells. just take a zip tie and tie up the throttle wirez until its tyte. it will fix it fo sho

take your car, and have a mechanic adjust your throttle cable. if you try to do it yourself, you'll more than likely break something.

 

First question: Are you new to the FC?

The FC (if not all RX-7's) has a very short gas pedal motion. You will get used to it in a couple weeks.

 

can someone translate what he said? I don't think it was english

 

there is no way he can be talking about the gas...must be clutch. I don't even think the throw of the gas pedal is that long in the first place.

are you saying that while letting out the clutch it doesn't grab until about 2.5-3 inches up off the floor?

 

LOL

I thought it was well detailed and extremely understandable.

 

you, my friend, are crazy.

It would probably be easier if you (the thread starter) could just rephrase the question and detail it more to help us understand it so we can try to come up with an answer for you. I don't even quite understand it myself, so we're not necissairly making fun of you or anything, just the poor phrasing/description of the question.

 

mine has about 2-3" of slack too but ive never seen another like that, im guessing its just the wrong cable. i gotta fix mine soon

 

Hey its ok, my brake pedal goes all the way to the floor and then I start to slow down...kinda.

 

sorry for the bad phrasing guys.....and yea, im kinda new to the FC (onli had it for a couple of months) lemme try again:

I realized that the Travel of my gas pedal from rest (as in no pressure at all) to the floor is only about 2 or 3 inches. As i was informed above, it is either normal or wrong wiring...I tried flipping through the Haynes manual looking for the gas pedal adjustmentpage, but cant find the section its under ( please tell me if you know...and yes, im horrible with books)

BTW: Thanks

 

is there any reason there would be play in the first inch of pushing in the clutch pedel at all?
