I have Look style pedals although that shouldn't make much difference. However, you do have to oil them once in awhile, that's for sure. You might be able to adjust them as well.

When it rains, my pedals tend to get tight. That's when I really have to be careful about maintenance.

When I first started out with clipless, I went around the block and practiced as I was riding to get the feel. That seemed to help as well.
well, Nancy, that's why you are the bike goddess, someone for us to look up to and admire!
