Accelerator pedal (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

throttle

'accelerator pedal' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for throttle that I've seen before include "Strangle; control (an engine)" , "Choke by pressure on the windpipe" , "Check" , "Strangle with car pedal?" , "Fuel-regulating valve in an engine" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and the Sydney Morning Herald.
