    I know its strange but above 40 the accelerator vibrates.

    The nuts which hold the plastic in place which holds the actual accelerator in place and are done up tight.

    Please help

    There is a thread on here somewhere (I'm on phone so can't be doing with searching at the moment) about the vibrating accelerator pedal being cause by the cable resting against the airbox iirc. It's been years since I last read it. But it's a simple fix by offering some padding around the cable.

    Bugger it, I did a quick search.

    Not the thread but think it links to a link of the thread which I can't seem to open.
