Gas Pedal
I have a new 07 F250 - the gas pedal is extremely stiff and needs a lot more effort to push down than any other vehicles I've owned- anyone else have this issue?

I was up under the dash the other day, cleaning mud off the pedals. That accellerator pedal looks different, doesn't it It doesn't look like it connects through the firewall to any throttle linkage, but rather is a fly-by-wire system. Odd.Good luck. |

The pedal in the diesel trucks are bascially just potentiometers. (Drive by wire) When you push the pedal down it sends a 0-5v reference signal to the computer. That being said, there is a spring on the pedal to simulate the feel of a throttle cable, because that's what we are used to. I'm not sure how much adjustment there is, but if there is a problem it's an easy swap for the dealer. |
