Is it still riveted to the floor? The rivets tend to rust out and break
off.

Subject: Accelerator Pedal problem, so I think....

So I am driving my 88 Wolfsburg today down to the beach, cruising down
the
road and my Accelerator Pedal felt like It was literally leaning
/falling
off toward the left so I lift my foot off the pedal and put it back
down,
know I am being sure to keep my pressure toward the right side.

I stop when I get to the beach and check the pedal, it�s appears to my
novice Vanagon knowledge that it is firmly connected to a what appears
to be
L shaped metal rod.  Now my question is what�s going on here? Is there a
fix? Do I need a new pedal or connector? Or I am just crazy and maybe I
imagined this?

Need your collective advice.

Thanks in advance.
