1 Speed Control Linkage problem

Failure Date: 11/06/2005

The accelerator pedal has been sticking since about 60,000 miles. It now has over 100k. I have lubed every component from the pedal to the throttle plate, but it has not helped. When pulling away from a stop, the pedal (or linkage) hangs and excessive force must be applied, resulting in either wheel spin or lurching forward.
