I have an 86 Auto transmission in my T3.

In recent times there has been a problem with the accelerator.  When I
start off in the morning, or start off from the lights etc, I find
that the accelerator pedal sticks most times. I have to push it quite
hard to get it to operate.  Once it DOES operate, there is no problem
until I have had my foot off the pedal for some time.

After quite a bit of poking around I find that it is not to do with
the pivot at the bottom of the pedal or that under the floor.  It also
isn�t to do with the engine end of the cable.

It also isn�t to do with friction in the cable sheath.

It seems that the resistance is in the auto transmission (the
accelerator cables connects to the kickdown lever on the A/T and then
a cable goes from this lever to the engine.).  It is the actual
movement of the kickdown lever that is the problem.

Has anyone has this issue arise?  I can open up the transmission, but
it is a bit messy and cost the ATF, so before I do that again I�m
wondering whether anyone else can comment having found a similar
problem.

Thanks folks,

Dave
