The title basically says it all.

I picked up my car yesterday and trailered it home. When I first played with the car i pulled on the pedal because I thought it didn't return fully. Anyhow the linkage popped off because it doesn't allowmovement in the reverse direction unlike most cars. So I popped it back on and all seemed ok, even though I didn't start the car.

When I brought the car home i noticed the bracket is bent to the right and the ball joints don't line up. So I bent it back to the left and hooked the two linkages (one for the pedal and one going through the tunnel).

Took the car for a noisy drive around the neighborhood and floored it. The bracket bent to the right again and got stuck under a piece of sheet metal or something. No rev limiter so i cut the engine as soon as possible. The engine is ok, drove ok afterwards.

Any someone post pictures of how this is supposed to be aligned? Do I have to replace the pedal cluster?

PLEASE HELP! Thanks! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Thanks for the offer but I already got one and just put it in. Had to adjust my throttle cable, car started and idled at 3000rpm. It's all set now. One problem down, several more annoyances to go.
