The car was fine this morning. No codes or anything. Then I had been home for like 5 minutes and I was going to take a friend home and got like 30 feet down my road and the cars throttle hung wide open. Its weird. Then the car is cold it idles at like 1500 and doesnt do it but as soon as it hits like 1600 it does it. The car isnt throwing codes.

your TB may need to be replaced.

I was kind of thinking that as well. I just put my rebuilt head on and my other intake manifold with new gaskets and it has been a few days since i got that done. Jut today it started it. I am going to go clean out my throttle body and clean the spring. I searched a little bit. Never found anything for the efi's but i found some carb stuff and im going to try cleaning parts like they said.

Thanks shepherd79 for the help. I got it fixed. Im not sure what the part is called put it has a vacuum line connection on the top of it and has a little arm type thing that goes into the part the throttle cable goes on. Well I was looking at it and the arm popped out of the whole so i made a clip and fixed it.
