Description of the problem	On june 11,2010 i was changing the anti freeze in my 2003 toyota tacoma. The vehicle was in park and running to warm engine to open thermostat to get more coolant from the lower block . Well i decide to boost the engine speed by manually moving the throttle . To my surprise my truck lurched back before coming to a stop i check the shifter it was still in park . But a further exam the vehicle stuck in reverse and will not go into any forward gear. I m' going to check to see if the linkage needs adjustment everybody i talk with said it was not suppose to move unless the brake was applied first.
