Question Hard Accelerator Pedal fix?

I've gone though and adjusted / lubed all the pushrods to FSM specs.

The pedal is still fairly stiff and takes a lot of force to push through the entire travel range - sticking though - just stiff.

This is on the '85. The 82's pedal is much easier. The '82 is in storage so a side by side comparison is not easy at the moment.

What can I check / lube / change to make it easier? Have a 6k-mile road trip coming up and my gf cant drive the car with the pedal in it's current condition :-(

Thanks, dd
