hey guys , i have a 96 cx with a b20 swap , when i got the swap the idle was rough so i took it back to fix it, they fixed it but now my gas pedal is sticky, like out of no where i wouldn't be able to press the gas pedal down and i would have to apply soooo much force that i think im breaking the pedal and then it would go down hard and i'd rev to like 3-4 thousand rpm's , the gas pedal wasnt like this before i took it back to fix the idle, i checked the cable and it seems fine i also lubed the bolts under the pedal , but its totaly random , sometimes it gets stuck like that sometimes it doesnt, usualy when i rev high in a gear then come to a full stop in neutral , and try to go again i wouldnt be able to press the gas pedal , it gets like rock hard, any input guys? all help is greatly appreciated, thanks in advance guys, sorry about the long write up.

That happened to me too. It was right after I adjusted my idle. Try two things. Clean ou the throttle body incase there's a build of carbon. Check to make sure the cable was put back in correctly. And if all else fails. Adjust the idle with an Allen wrench and play around with it till it doesn't do it anymore
