rpm's to high so it dies
You have a broken clutch.
Put the pedal to the metal means that you should go faster. It actually means press the gas pedal down to the floor of the vehicle to make it pick up speed.
Have a helper pump the brake pedal several times then hold it down. Loosen the bleeder valve at one wheel and let air and fluid out until the pedal reaches the floor. Close the valve and pump the pedal up again. Repeat the process until there is no air in the fluid, then move to the next wheel.
Actually if the fluid is coming down the clutch pedal it is probably your clutch master cylinder going bad or the seal around it. No worries it is a cheap fix. If it is coming down the clutch pedal it has nothing to do with your brakes. Some people well most use brake fluid for the clutch.
If it is sticking down, it may be your floor mat. There was a recall on the 2002 SE-R b/c the tab that was supposed to hold the floor mat in place was faulty and it would slide forward and push down on the gas pedal.
You may need a new clutch.
push foot down on brake pedal, hold in button on gear shifter and pull down
under the dash near the gas pedal, same direction where the radio is at but alway down to the floor
Either your gas pedal is stuck to the floor or you are going downhill.
When you press and hold the brake pedal it will slowly move to the floor. It can also have a catastrophic failure and go straight to the floor with no stopping ability at all. If you hold the brake pedal down and it slowly moves to the floor any at all, replace the master cylinder.
Start the engine. Place you foot on the brake pedal, and press fairly hard and hold the pedal down. If the pedal very slowly, moves toward the floor any at all, the master cylinder is defective. Replace it immediately!!!!!
It could be in need of a serious tune up.
