My 240 accelerates . . . without me pressing the gas . . .

[Zebrahead]

At college today, I pulled out of my parking spot, and in first gear, at a standstill, with the clutch ALL THE WAY OUT, the car started moving. No I wasn't on a hill, it was a very slow acceleration. I pressed the clutch in, and let it out, and it began accelerating again. I drove for a while, tried it again, but it didn't work

What the PhUck?

ur accelerator probably sticks a little..mine does something like that too...if i rev it really hard from idle it kinda blips the throttle on it's own

maybe your idle is WAAAAAAYYYYYY too high. my car moves a bit if i let the clutch out a little, but it sure as heck dies if i let it all the way out with no throttle.

oh btw, what are your rpm's when this happens?

I remember a LONG time ago someone posted a topic like this.Turns out the guy was using his cruise control wrong, and messed up his "ACCEL" button.

if the clutch is *OUT* alll the way out. and the motor is not stalling I would HAVE to say that the clutch is damn near shot.
