Hi `Matt,
Please post more details on your problems so that it can
assist members with suggestions.

Is it sticking wide open ?
What model is your Monte ?
How many miles ?
On long has it been sticking ?
Does your engine have any modifications ?
Look forward to your future post on this issue.
Good Luck

the gas pedal.

I don't know where you are in the country, but i know with bad weather comes dirty shoes, and shoes touch gas pedal. and the gas pedal has a few moving parts, and if it gets dirty it could stick a little.

Matt, it's difficult to attempt to give you a solution to your problem
without more details.

To add to the above ?'s ,already asked:

How is it stuck ?
Is it stuck to the floor ?
Is it just sticking sometimes ? All the time ?

It would sure help if members had more detailed information
on your problem.
Thanks
