mine does this also from the accelarator also, its not anything i dont think, as its when i 1st touch the pedal,

am i right in saying the pedal has play in it, like a cpl of cm then it actually works after that, like most pedals u can push it down the tiniest bit and nothing will happen this is when mine clicks and its nothing to worry about i think,

Get someone to depress the pedal, you'll soon see what moves. With the pedal fully depressed see if it will move any further (the thing that moves), if so adjust the nut/bolt on the end of the cable sheath.

I changed the throttle bush, and yes i feels much better. As standard they come with a plastic bush thats abit weak IMO. Over time the pedal starts to wear this bush and then doesn't rotate square to the pivot, sort of on the piss if you know what I mean. This bronze item takes out any play around the pivot.
