[urq] accelerator pedal woes...

Both bushings are replacable... cable and aluminium thingy one.

I bought a new cable last year for $35... should still be available... but not needed if the bushing is your only problem.

>hey I had my gas pedal drop to the floor last Friday on the way home from work. Seems the rubber bushings (431 721 559) that connects the throttle cable to the pedal via the square weight/hinge disintegrated and fell out. I'm sure I'm not the only one who's experienced this....
