loose pedals...ahh!

Post by SteeleMX3 »

My pedals are all loosey goosey (I believe that's the correct termonology) and I can't accelerate my ZE to her full potential because the gas pedal as about 2 inches of give in it. The same thing is happening on a lesser degree with my clutch and brake. suggestions???

cheers

Thanks for the link man but I'm pretty sure Jesse calibrated it pretty good when he did my swap...might as well give it a look though :shrug:
And for the brakes and clutch I may just try bleeding them like you said, maybe I'll post back on here with results.

thanks for MX-3.com's quickest reply ever :lol: :2thumbsup:

lol it took 9 min! the side skirt post only took me 2 or 3 min XD

but yeah, there seems to be slack in your accelerator cable, or else it wouldn't have that much play, not putting down jesse in any way, the man does great work as he's helped me personally with lots of stuff.
