Throttle Pedal Kit Thread

There's supposed to be a nylon bushing on that rod. 

 

And a grommet on your door lock linkage. ?

 

There is indeed a bushing, but there's enough slop in there that the pedal rattles on the bushing. Perhaps its just worn in and needs replacing. 

 

as for the door... oh lord. It's a future project to dig into both of them. Chances are there is no little grommet. Perhaps a good winter-weekend project!

Chances are there is absolutely no little grommet.  Each door takes two ☺️

 

The back of the gas pedal has that thin metal bar. Bend it toward the rod to decrease clearance. After you rotate the bushing. ?

there may be a flat spot worn on it and rotating it could solve the problem.

should be good for a few rotations. 

( who me? frugal?? ) :)

I'm shocked I'm still receiving PM's about this after all this time. As Andrew said- I agreed many years ago to have Ireland produce the throttle pedals. 

 

Be sure to give them your business!

    BMW Neue Klasse - a birth of a Sports Sedan

    Unveiling of the Neue Klasse Unveiled in 1961, BMW 1500 sedan was a revolutionary concept at the outset of the '60s. No tail fins or chrome fountains. Instead, what you got was understated and elegant, in a modern sense, exciting to drive as nearly any sports car, and yet still comfortable for four.   The elegant little sedan was an instant sensation. In the 1500, BMW not only found the long-term solution to its dire business straits but, more importantly, created an entirely new

Car and Driver called it “the best $2500 sedan anywhere.”  Road & Track’s road test was equally enthusiastic.  Then, BMW took a cue from American manufacturers,

    The BMW 2002 Production Run

    BMW 02 series are like the original Volkswagen Beetles in one way (besides both being German classic cars)—throughout their long production, they all essentially look alike—at least to the uninitiated:  small, boxy, rear-wheel drive, two-door sedan.  Aficionados know better.   Not only were there three other body styles—none, unfortunately, exported to the US—but there were some significant visual and mechanical changes over their eleven-year production run.   I’ve extracted t
