While I've got my car 1/2 apart for my 4spd project, I've decided to look into a long standing issue with my gas pedal. The darn pedal just seems to have a ton of play in it. Not up and down play, like it's supposed to have, but side to side. The thing just seems too sloppy! My FSM doesn't show a good picture /diagram of the pedal attachment, so I can't tell if some small parts are missing (springs and stuff). Either way, it looks overly complicated from the factory.

Does anybody else have a sloppy pedal? Any pictures of the back of a pedal where the plastic pedal attaches to the steel?

Thanks
