Kingsboynow Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 Hi , i have a ke25 which i bought recently. Accelerator pedal takes abt 5 seconds to return. Traced the problem to this spring. Wd40 did the trick but looking to replace it , if anyone could point me in the right direction. Thank u Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banjo Posted September 1, 2022 Report Share Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) Welcome aboard rollaClub. Good luck finding another one of those. Your pic seems to show the spring surface rust has "bound" the spring coils together, but not eaten it away to create a discard situation. I'd take the pedal assembly out altogether. Bang it lightly, to free the coils from each other, & leave to soak in a vessel, with a solvent therein. Once it is all free, give it an oil, & reinstall, & you should get another 40 years out of it. If it is a throwaway, then source a similar type from a car breakers yard. You should be able to find something, suitable, as all accelerator pedals, work in pretty much, the same way. Where are you located ? I might have a KE30 or KE55 one floating around, that will substitue. Cheers Banjo.
