Touchy Accelerator

[Thodge]

I’m trying to find a solution for the touchy throttle on my dad’s coupe. I know that the footrest was the original solution to the problem but he has a problem using it. It’s uncomfortable to use and his foot gets caught under it if he doesn’t use it. We took the footrest out completely but you really have to use a light touch on the pedal or there’s a lot of bucking and jerking when getting on the throttle in first and second. Do the accessory Fulton-style pedals help with this? I was also wondering if there’s a way to add an extra return spring on the throttle linkage or if that would even help.
