Wheel well tip
Had this happen on my '98 two nights ago. Scary, then hilarious 'hey, I've lost my gas pedal!'
It's probably obvious to experts, but here's a tip for us rookies: Jack up, jack stand and remove the driver's side front wheel and pull out the lower wheel well skirt to get access to the engine side of the fix. There's no mention of this in the TSB but I have no idea how you'd ever get the nuts on the bolts if you don't do this.
