We thought it had sticky throttle but after lubricating plate and cable it hasnt made any difference.
To start with, when you first get into the car the peddle is stuck, with a little force with your foot it will move.
Traveling along steady in 4th or 5th gear isnt a problem, its when you need to slow down ie taking foot of the throttle a bit it starts jumping kangaroo-ing like when your learning to drive.
it is purely when you use less presure on the throttle and not reving it judders and jumps in any gear.
Any ideas??
Can i sort it at home, i normally give it ago at home first before going to garage.
And yes i can drive its not me...

I have a '95 Ford Ranger. It's getting colder by the day. It made me wonder if I could get remote start on my truck even though it's manual. Some of you many think this is a dumb question, since how would you start the car without pushing down on the clutch, but my dad has cruise control on his Toyota Celica GT and I have no idea how it works since he also has stick. But, I don't want cruise control anyway. I was just making a point there.

If so, how much does it usually cost and can I do it myself or is it really complex?

I've got no idea which fuse or rating is where. Previous owner has wires running into fuse panel in three spots. I have empty places where fuses might go. I have the schematics but they just show certain cicuits running together and going to a fuse f1,f2, but I need to find out which and where that fuse is. Please help. Thanks.

I had a rebult engine put into my car, 1991 Mitsubitshi 3000GT. I paid $3500. With it I had hoses replaced and the oil pump. Less than 3 months and less than 1000 miles the head gasket blew again. My car has gauges and sensors, none came on until the last min. When the tow truck picked it up it had no water in it, they put water in it and there was no leaks. Where did the water go? SInce it was a new engine, I checked the oil and water before driving it, and I watched the gauges. I am restoring this car, and the engine was the last thing that was needed. It is under warrenty for 3 years or 30,000 miles. Who is at fault on this amount of money and parts?

I'm about to hit 60,000 mi. on my Sebring LXi coupe and have heard it's time to flush and fill the tranny. It's the Mitsu 3.0 V6 w/ the 4 spd Autostick trans. It could be me, but it does seem to have a SLIGHT rough spot occasionally in 3rd gear when in normal shift (D). I've also heard there was an Upgrade fluid to put in, ....?

I have an 88 Ford Bronco 2 4x4 2.9L V6 with a rebuild engine and transmission. This problem started in the summer while on the highway I notice that at first the gas pedle felt loose then the engine light went on and I lost accleration. At first I when I tried to get it to start it would turn over but would die. But it started up the next day and didn't have a problem until it happened again. I replaced the ignition modular, gave it a tune up, replaced the battery, and replaced the fuel pump in the gas tank. The problem still persists and to make it worst its intermittent which makes it difficult to find.

I was wondering if it could be the computer for the truck and how I could troubleshoot it.

Thank for any help.

I want to attach a steel hood scoop to what has turned out to be an aluminum hood. I heard there were non-ferrous strips that would link the two without allowing interaction. No idea if this is true or where to get them if it is....?!
