well anyways today this happened to me for the 2nd time in a week as soon as i left the gym i put my evo into second gear and out of no where the throttle gets stuck and the revs shoot up to 8k rpm i immediately disengage the clutch as i dont want to hit the driver in front of me and yet the rpms still stay at 8k rpm for a good 2 seconds i then turn off my car...note my foot was off the pedal the whole time..anyone knoe whats wrong here i checked the throttle in the engine and it seemed fine..let you know my car has over 100k miles

 

Floor mat, something on the floor, TB getting stuck?

 

nope floormats are in tact..im thinkin air control valva anyone else have this problem

 

Wow that would scare the crap out of me. I would look around the pedal area to see if there has been any tampering/debris or possibly something broken.

 

You obviously have one of these under your hood.




Corrective action:

Open your hood and shine one of these all over and it will fix your problem.

 

Clean your TB and check cable for kinks

 

wud crank angle sensor be caused this, a buddy of mine is experiencing similar issue.

 

Get some holy water and spray it on the car while saying "The power of christ compels you!" Should get rid of the demons reving your car.

Back to reality, my friend's car did the same. Forgot what he did to fix it so i will talk to himand report back.

 

My car is in the shop with a throttle spike issue as well

 

the odds of your IAC motor being able to pass enough air to rev it that high are slim.

 

thanks for the info

 

take it to a toyota dealership.

halarious

 

Hahahahahaha....

Ok no seriously.... This happend too me aswell. I was driving uphill and I just put the car into 2nd and omg the car just accelerates by itself... All the way too 8rpms then I put my foot on the break and the car keeps accelerating... While my fit is on the brake.... So my buddy was in the car with me at the time and I told him too "look" I took my feet away from the pedals and the car was going by itself... I hit the clutch and all I smell is the clutch burning up... So I pull over and turn the car off and it...shuts off with the noise you would hear.. When someone revs there car really high and turns it off.

That **** was scary! Omg typing on this phone sucks!!!

 

Tps?
