Default Gas pedal play

I've got play in my gas pedal. About hald an inch of loose area, before the throttle cable starts to move. Nothing happens at all in that space. Any body have similar issues?? Driving me crazy. Thnx

Tighten your throttle cable?

that's what I did, I made my throttle cable "taut." I've heard you're supposed to have a little bit of play in it... but I haven't had any problems.

It's to your preference how much play you leave. You'll know if you tighten it too much. Your idle will be high, obviously.
