Slack in Throttle?
Slack in Throttle? I never really had any slack, but this morning I got up and went to work, I noticed I had to push the pedal in quite a ways before I could notice any throttle. It was the same on the way to school, and on the way home. I havent really looked at it, but there is barely any distance between WOT and barely opening of the throttle. Is there anything specific I should look for?

Check the adjustment on the throttle cable itself. You can trace it back from the throttle body, it makes a U pattern towards the junction box. In the middle of that U (towards the back of the engine), there is an adjustment. Take the clip off, push the throttle cables together, and put the clip back on. If it still slides out, you can tighten the clip with a ziptie (sometimes the clip loses it's ability to hold the cables together), or you could go buy a new cable ... I think it's like 40-50 bucks.
