Sticking accelerator pedal
I have a 1947 Ford convertible. Every so often - it seems to be more after it's been driven a while - the accelerator pedal will not fully return after being released. This will cause the engine to idle higher than normal. When this happens, I have to get the sole of my shoe under the pedal to bring it all the way back up. I've looked at (and lubricated) all the linkages I can see but is there somewhere else it might be getting caught up. It doesn't always happen but very annoying when it does. Any insights appreciated. Thank you.
