When I was a little kid I used to do the same thing with my dad. He'd say alright, i'd push until the pedal hit the floor. Say ok, then it'd be a few seconds and then he'd say ok let off. A few more seconds and then he'd say alright. haha As a kid I didn't know what the heck was going on. This thing is night and day from the things I have done so far. At first I thought it was in horrible shape but after doing some light maintenance and cleaning it up it runs like a new car.
