Hey guys. I tried the search function and didn’t find this. I have an 86 GT I just bought. The gas pedal required a crazy amount of force to press it. I disconnected the linkage from the throttle body and discovered the TB spring was the culprit. It is ridiculously heavy. The last owner put a new TB on it. Any ideas/suggestions for lightening that up to make it more drive able?
