 Problem with RPM jumping like foot is on the gas!!! I was goin up a hill one day and came to a stop sign, when shifting into first everything went smoothly, but when i shifted into 2nd noticed rpm jumped really high when i didn't even push the gas. Stopped on the side restarted car, now everytime i turn the car on my RPM just goes up and it sounds like i'm holding the gass down when i'm not even touching anything (except for the clutch), any suggestion or if a similar problem has happened before any solutions please!!
have a 95 gst

Re: Problem with RPM jumping like foot is on the gas!!! Check if your throttle cable is binding up and holding the throttle plate open.

Re: Problem with RPM jumping like foot is on the gas!!! Check the cruise control actuator mounted on the passenger side strut tower. Damage to this will cause problems like this.
