This car has computer controlled automatic idle speed control, the throttle cable is not likely the problem. Have the dealer run a special test to ID problems with this idle speed control system called an "Key on engine running fault code test"

SOURCE: oil is smoking near dip stick,won't go over 10

you did put the antifreeze mix in the radiator and not in the oil cap didnt you?

Sounds like you put the water where the oil goes!

you may have a jammed thermostat if you didnt do this, or badly out of whack ignition timing.

Please Help!!! 1999 Mercury Sable doesn't seem to accelerate past first gear..engine revs up to very high rpms.

If the speedometer stops working the odometer stops also. Sounds like it is stuck in first gear. The RPM went up because the throttle was response to pedal but transmission not response. Check transmission fluid color. Whip off dipstick on a white paper towel look for gray if see any that is metal shavings and transmission is bad.

Shifting problem

Take to a transmission shop, likely you need overhaul or replacement.

I will be honest here...I am a woman who knows NOTHING about cars. Also I am a single mom, who cant afford yet another mechanic...so here goes. I have a 1996 Lexus ES 300...this doesnt happen all of the...

It may be your transmission. If it shifts hard going through gears also then it may be that. But what you decribed it it slipping gears which would target your transmission or rear end.

The throttle is sticking on my 96 chrysler concorde

Same thing happened to my '96 Cirrus recently. The accelerator cable got frayed and stuck in the sheath covering it. Bought a used one for $20 from a junk yard and installed it. Works fine now.

2004 Hyundai Santa Fe loses exceleration

This is usually caused by failure of the accelerator pedal position sensor, but can also be caused by the throttle control motor. I would test the sensor first. If it fails, replace it. If it passes, che k the wiring and connectors for continuity to the pcm and throttle. If wiring is good, replace the throttle controller.
