[DMCForum] Re: Car Talk / accelerator versus gas pedal

I try to not call gasoline "gas" because too many people
call it petrol.  So I just try to call it fuel.  Then I
suppose you could call the accelerator a fuel pedal or a
petrol pedal.

Well at least on a DeLorean I think it is more appropriately
called an air pedal because it only allows more air in the
engine -- not fuel.  More air pushes on the air/fuel
metering plate which pushes the pin on the fuel distributor
putting more fuel to the injectors.

Confused yet?
