AS OF 07/30/11 AT 7PM I WAS COMING HOME FROM A PARK WITH 3 OTHER PEOPLE IN MY CAR. AS SOON AS WE EXITS THE ENTRANCE MY CAR STARTING SPEEDING REALLY FAST LIKE SOMEONE HAD JUST SLAMMED THEIR FOOT ON MY GAS PEDAL...OH BOY I WAS IN DEEP TROUBLE...I HAD TO SHIFT GEARS SO QUICK SO THAT I WON'T HIT THE REDLINE AND BLOW MY ENGINE.. I PULLED OVER AND SET MY CAR ON NEUTRAL BUT MANN MY CAR WAS STILL REFFING SO I TURNED OFF MY ENGINE...TURN MY ENGINE BACK ON AND IT DID THE SAME THING..AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS OF TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHY MY CAR IS DOING THAT.. I CALLED A FRIEND AND HE TOLD ME TO UNPLUGGED MY BATTERY FOR 10 SECS. AND PUT IT BACK ON.. AND IT WORKED...OH BOY SO I THANKED THE LORD BECAUSE NOBODY WAS HURT AND LUCKILY THERE WEREN'T ANY CARS DURING THAT TIME...

OHH GAWD NOO NOT THE CELICAS TOOS!!!!!!
NO ONE IS SAFE!!!!! YOU SHOULD HAVE turned the key off maybe? yeah that works. clean up your throttle body and cable. build up can make it stick... but its not gonna ALLL OF THE SUDDEN ACCELERATE..... you must have floored it, and since its dirty or gummed up, it stuck. -------------------- QUOTE "And, as always, your friendship, help, and dedication to the advancement of Texas Celica dominance is GREATLY appreciated.
