driving a sticking. spring supports I've seen this twice. Your accelerator cable is probably frayed inside the sheath. The broken ends act like springs and rev the engine for you. Very scary. Replac

BJ! you win the prize!! It was indeed a frayed cable! I bought a choke cable to use, it has a solid core though, I don't know how well it will work. I will let you know. Has anyone figured out where
