My black MOMO accelerator pedal pot is getting a bit jumpy, so I thought I'll give it a cleaning to see if that fixes it. Took out the 8 screws from the underside of the pedals and ... ????? How do you get into these things? Marc -- **************************************************************************** Marc Collins [email hidden] Your mouse has moved.

I wondered if there were screws under there but didn't want to ruin the rubber--it wasn't peeling off when I tried to pry it with my screwdriver. Thanks for the insight, though! Marc "Andi Cole" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:42177321$0$68461$[email hidden]...

When you see how pathetically the pots are seated you'll probably find that that is the issue rather than a failing pot. You can fit the end of a cheap pen's plastic ink tube (approx 1/2 inch) over the nipple and slide it back in thus holding the pot nice and firmly in place. Then you have a perfect set of peddles 'til the secondary brake spring fails! :)
JUst BE CAREFUL and GO SLOW as you take it apart!! I took mine apart to reseat the pot's and it came apart too easily and I had to refigure how and where everything went to reassemble it...
