Description of the problem | While stopped at a light the engine revved up to a high rate. I tried to put the transmission into neutral but put it into reverse instead, the high rate of revs continued, finally got it into neutral and engine went back to normal idle speed. When light changed put transmission into drive and proceeded home (a few blocks) without incident. This happened about 13 months ago whereby the mechanic replaced the idle speed control and throttle position sensor. Also they did a throttle body and fuel injection service at that time. |
