Brake and Accel pedals are fairly close so that foot on brake can also depress accel. involuntarily. Solution: Bleed all four wheels with a "Pressure" bleeder. Pressure bleeder is recommended tool for procedure on ABS systems. Result is that brake pedal becomes firmer and eventually, sits a bit higher. However, experimental continued pressure WILL make it sink further; not a normal in-use occurrance!
