Ironically, I had a 85 380SE that needed new fuel injectors, but I didnt do it. The Mercedes shop was going to do it for $300.
easy job, do it yourself.

Well, I dont have any problems with the injectors on my current car... only the accelerator pedal is sometimes quirky and hard to depress... even after a brand new pedal from the Mercedes-Benz dealer.

Well, its not as bad as it was, but the pedal is still not as easy to depress before it really messed up and before I put on the new pedal.

Today there was an instance where I had to really press hard on the pedal. I am concerned its going to stick on me and end up causing me to crash.

Here are some photos I took today... can anyone look at these and visually tell me if all looks to be in order? Can I maybe oil/lube all of these linkage areas and hope it will cure the problem? What would be best? 3 in 1 oil, WD40? I am not sure whats going on. Again, I was told months ago I probably had a broken pedal at the floor, but when I took it off, it looked fine, but I replaced it anyway with a brand new Mercedes OEM pedal... still is quirky.

What area is most likely the culprit? Looks like there are several different linkage points...

Thanks.

Nevermind... sprayed some WD-40 on those linkages and its smooth as silk now.
