| In the morning after the car has not been used or in cold weather during short periods the accelorator linkage on the foot pedal sticks requiring me to press hard quickly to unstick the linkage. at times it will do this while traveling only when real cold and am afraid sometime that it will stick in traveling or leaving a congested area where i cannot contol the speed ot the car due to this jerk of acceration. | |||
