Either broken accelerator cable or broken throttle position sensor, open the bonnet and see if the gas pedal actually turns the throttle, if the throttle is turning then the fault is in the TPS - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/TOYOTA-AVENSIS-CAMRY-RAV-4-THROTTLE-POSITION-SENSOR-GEN_W0QQitemZ260532390938QQcmdZViewItem?rvr_id=&rvr_id=&cguid=504ea2ab1260a0aad422e2a2ffc2aa49#ht_879wt_940
That should fix it, simple to fit. one out one in + reattach the connector.

Engine revs up down while in idle

If its been without the line for over a year, I Highly doubt it. Look into IAC valve. Most are installed with 2 screws, easy to adjust. Idle Air Control Valve. Look that up, for a start.

Hi any solution for my 2005 407 16 hdi pls ?car wont start unless gas pedal pressed,and when it starts the car is not responding for gas pedal ,i press the pedal all the way down and still going slow

Sounds like your gas cable is loose or has slipped off the injector pump. It simply clips onto the pump. Locate your injector/fuel pump and check the wire cable going to it is connected. You should also be able to manually rev up your engine from there by pushing the fuel level back and forth. see how you go. All the best

Engine over revs throtle sticking T reg lanos

first off.... does the engine over rev on its own? or only after you press the gas pedal?
does your vehicle have a throttle body that is electronic or cable actuated?..if electronic and revs on own could be one of two issues 1) throttle body itself 2)throttle pedal switch on gas pedal)
if cable and revs after pushing gas pedal ..either there is too much carbon built up on the throttle plate or the throttle cable has begun to fail.. remove the intake tube from the air cleaner to the throttle body and inspect

Vw polo maintains engine revs when foot is off the accelerator.

You need to check the cable the runs from the gas pedal to the engine, it might be rusty and need some drops of penetrating oil at the point it meets with the engine accelerator valve.

2003 Ford Ranger Pickup traveling down the road

Is there somthing hitting the gas pedal, like the floor mat? Or maybe something under the dash came loose and is getting caught under the brake pedal and pushing on the gas. Put the shifter in neutral if you get into a situation where going to hit something or someone. The engine has a rev limiter, to prevent it from over reving.
