cobrakiwi,
Yup, my pedal is stop-ready, just no stop installed!

mickmate,
I hope you don't mind if I take you up on your offer?!

patrickt,
My linkage bracket that's mounted on the block is welded like yours but the one on the footbox is like the pic below...

Jamo,
It does have a nyloc! I guess it simply wasn't tight enough.

keezling,
I did have an immediate karma refection, "This is what I get". But the guy was right on my ass! There was probably more danger in the tailgaiting than the stuck throttle because...

The throttle was stuck but I never said it was WOT. Goosing it enough to stop a BMW's pass is not a WOT move. I'm convinced that the linkage was tight, then slipped, then 'caught' again, to settle with the linkage at 3 o'clock. My foot wasn't really heavy but when the pedal resistance goes to zero, it's hard to step off at the exact moment.
