RPMs settle down to 1,200 when in Drive. The accelerator pedal doesn't stick. What's wrong? |

Also, without foot on brake while in Drive, car accelerates gently but firmly.

Is the throttle linkage coming all the way back to the idle stop on the back of the IP?
There is also the possibility the engine is getting fuel from some place else, like engine oil getting into the intake at the turbo charger. Almost a minor run away perhaps. Check the ALD to make sure it has not failed and pushing for maximum fuel. I don't know if it can fail in a way to do this. Not that familiar with a 79SD. Just a thought.

Since torque converter rebuilt, new flex discs, new oil pan, etc etc etc = not a ripple with a full cup of coffee ;-)
