gas pedal bushing

[rfkellner@snet.net (Rick Kellner)]

    If you can fit under the dash then it's easy.  Remove the shelf and the
panels under the dash/steering column.  The bushing is at the end of the gas
pedal lever.  The accelerator cable hooks into this lever and bushing.  As
soon as I touched the old bushing it fell apart.  It had turned into a waxy
substance that crumbled in my hand.
    I picked one up a new, black rubber, one from the dealer for $1.76.
Part # 191 721 559.  I am not sure if this is the newer, A2 style some
listers have mentioned.  Just put a little Armorall on it and it popped
right in.

broken out the Bently yet but where exactly is this bushing, why replace it
and how hard is it to replace?
