I noticed that the brake and gas pedals are kinda loose and noisy when I put my foot on and especially off of em. The gap when I push down the pedal just before it gives the engine gas (just before it gives resistance) is kinda big too and springs up hard making that loose vibrating click/twang sound.

BTW, This isn't just the pedal part but the bar attached to the pedal. The whole thing. and the problem is just before it gives resistance and when I take my foot off the pedal. That little gap. When it's braking or accelerating it's just fine. Just that pre-throttle gap part.

Is there a place where I tighten this? I've never heard of someone lubing it. Anyone else have this problem?

 

not sure if this answers your question

for the accelerator check and make sure the throttle cable is tightened properly? for example have a friend put the pedal to the floor and see if the throttle body goes Wide open if not then it is loose.

 

I have that... I wouldn't call it a problem. Its not so bad in my brakes, but my gas pedal has about 3/4 inch before it engages. I've gotten used to it and kinda like it.

 

sounds like the throttle cable is loose.

 

There should be a little buffer zone... afaik

I tried to get rid of that little area where there is no resistance or feedback from the pedal by tightening the throttle cable, and the gas started to stick... so don't overtighten. If I press the pedal just right, still, it sticks. I hate messing with throttle cables.

 

For sticking just off idle, try cleaning the throttle body throat.
