[QUOTE="ZoNiE, post: 1027342, member: 54000"] OK, I just tried this and ran and got an Iced Tea. Seems to have worked somewhat. I'll report back later after my drive home. I also found reference to this in the Crown Vic and Mustang Forums. Procedure I used: 1. Turn Ignition to "ON" but don't start engine. 2. Slowly press gas pedal all the way to the floor (I took about 3-4 sec). 3. Release pedal quickly (yank back your foot). 4. Turn off Ignition. 5. Repeat steps 1-4 two more times. YMMV, JWID. There was some commentary about how long you take to push the pedal down. One guy said it worked better when he did it over 4 seconds instead of 10 the first time he tried this. There was more about loosening the gas pedal bracket bolts and pulling it as far out as possible, but I didn't try that yet. Interesting this has not come up here in this forum before, and if it did, I couldn't find it. [/QUOTE]
