wrmmh... getting my old truck back on the road... soon!
the last time i drove my old truck i had a slight issue with a sticking accelerator pedal... not fun! i do NOT recommend!! i didn't have the time to get the truck fixed at the time so it had to wait until this spring.


i got the truck to the mechanics (tow truck) and he just called to say he figured out what was causing the issue (i thought possibly a dirty throttle body)... apparently a gasket has mis-shaped over time and the throttle plates were 'hooking up' on the gasket, causing the throttle to get stuck open.
he said the gasket is no longer rubber (so i'm guessing the manufacturer figured out over time that this was happening). he's just finding the part and will have my truck ready early next week - i can't wait!


Spoiler!
