Pedal box question.....and Brake master cylinder

[berni29]

Hi

The bar that runs through my pedal box is jammed on the accelerator pedal. I seem to remember the same thing on my other Plus 2. Is that normal? I would think that it would be better to have the bar fixed to the pedal box so that it does not rotate, and the pedals free on the bar.

When you get it out either bore down the middle,drill a few holes to line up with the pedals and fit a grease nipple(angled) in the end or get a piece of s/s tube the same diameter and do the same....
Every now and then you'll be able to pump some grease into it.

Hi John

Good idea. I like that. I might just open the accelerator pedal out and use some copper grease though! Someone has put grease nipples onto my rear hubs in between the bearings. I am not sure how effective that is in prolonging their life. I would think that you would have to pump in an EP90 type oil.
