A couple weeks ago I experienced a strange situation pulling into a drive way. As I pulled into the driveway - you have to cross over the side walk and up a steep short ramp (common style drive way)
Even know my foot was not on the g@s pedal the car would accelerate. It wasn't a consistent thing, so I just assumed that it was sticky throttle linkage and made a mental note to lube those parts in there good. I assumed it was happening more because I was depressing the g@s pedal the cable or linkage was sticking. Well today I noticed it but it happened when my foot was no where near the g@s pedal. I was just pulling into the driveway at work and it started to accelerate. When I turned and pulled into a parking spot and hit the brake the engine felt like it was revving just a little bit. I hit the brake several times and noticed it, and then it went back to normal. Any one experienced this before? Tried to do a search on this one - but I am stuck on search terms and getting either way to many results or too few... Any help or links is appreciated. -Scott
