You may need to hook it up to a scanner, and check for fault codes. this could lead you in the right direction. maf sensor fault or ambient air temp fault etc. thats where i would start if the engine light is on which it should be there will be some type of fault code, I would say either maf sensor or fuel pump.

next visually check connections and wiring at said faulty sensor, broken rubbed through wires and moisture may cause problems but usually it s the sensor. unfortunely.

if this does not correct the problem may need to take it to a garage

good luck!

2002 Malibu when it is started the motor revs up like you're pushing the gas pedal to the floor. Replaced the IAC valve yesterday and that didn't help.

With a high idle block off the mouth of throttle body, it should kill the engine. If no effect or very little, false air is getting in there from somewhere? A vacuum leak?

My 2009 chevy Aveo will not accelerate from a stop then suddenly speeds up often doing this while driving in traffic. No check engine lights come on the car never completely quits running

Your best bet , take it to a qualified repair shop an have diagnostic's run . Your vehicle has electronic throttle control , gas pedal assembly has position sensors that connect to the PCM - engine computer which controls a DC - electric motor on the throttle body which opens and closes the throttle by how much you push on the gas pedal . Very complex , sensor could be going out .

Engine suddenly revs when stopped & @ idling

sounds like one of the metal arms connected to the engine may be getting stuck some how. have someone get in car and press on gas when car is off while you watch engine to see what is moving, then check those arms to see if there is any possible obstructions or knicks or something on them

Motor bogs down at stoplight when pushin gas pedal

The fuel pump relay will cause a stalling or no start condition. You are likely having mass airflow sensor, fuel pump, or fuel pressure regulator issues.
