No throttle cable a MY2000 - MY2000 on has eGas. On my 2004 986S, there is a cable that comes out of the pedal and wraps around a cam under the dash that rotates some sort of servo. It is electronic from there. The pedal itself is completely mechanical, and sort of rudimentary. There is a plastic piece that inserts at the base of the pedal and which rotates on a plastic spindle. Up about 2/3rds of the way, a metal "dogbone" piece comes out of the pedal enclosure and connects with a ball in a base on the back of the pedal. When you press the pedal, it rotates another cam- shaped plastic deal in the case that moves the cable. The cam under the dash is spring loaded. I would take a close look at that, and the "cam"shaped thing in the pedal, as well as the spindle at the base. Thanks for your help. I pulled the rubber boot off the shaft connected the the pedal and was able to spray some WD40 (using the red tube provided) into the ball and socket type attachment. This made a big difference but still not as smooth as my 2004 Chevy.

Have a 2000 Boxster s with 33k purchased recently. Can anyone give me some info on freeing a sticky gas pedal. Not a safety issue but annoying.
