When i turn on the motor, it seems like if i were pressing the accelerator, the MPH goes to 20,000... so i turn it off and on again and then it feels ok :(

it could the motor is sticking. get someone to remove it, clean it and the passages in the throttle body. when you are done, make sure you remove a battery cable to turn the computer stupid. it will re learn how to run right.
