Engine cooling: “Three problems - incident date not exact for all problems.1) had vehicle accelerate in nearly wide-open throttle position while braking at a stoplight in heavy traffic. Avoided accident by shifting truck into reverse and forward several times before I finally was able to turn off engine. Had truck towed to dealership where the throttle body was replaced. Since that time I have had throttle stick closed. I contacted dealership and was told carbon deposit was causing problem and they would clean for $100.00. …”
