    DA Sticky Accelerator

    Pretty basic, my accelerator sticks when accelerating from a stop. Apparently it is caused by a build up of muck in the throttle body, which I can clean out? Can anyone confirm this??

    sounds about right to me
    just go buy yourself some carby cleaner and see how good it cleans the dirt outta there

    To get it 100% smooth again you'll need to take it off. The crap stuck around the outside needs to be scrubbed off it won't come off with a spray. Only takes about half an hour all up with brake/carb cleaner.

    also check the accelerator cable for fraying or dirt build up..
