Yes, a broken or disconnected accelerator cable is the likely cause for the accelerator pedal to quit working. The car will still run fine but will not be able to accelerate past idle.
The cruise control, since it affects the accelerator, can also cause a change in velocity.
Incorrect fuel pressure. Plugged fuel filter.
if it runs fine until you push the gas pedal the accelerator pump may be bad if it has a carb on it.
When you press the accelerator and brake together in a motor car, the engine will rev, but the brake will stop it from moving. Doing this repeatedly can cause the vehicle damage.
Without pulling codes, I would quess the Oxygen sensor is weak and needs replacing.
Engine drag torque control prevents your wheels locking on slippery surfaces if you take your foot off the accelerator suddenly or shift down a gear fast. The braking effect of the engine can cause the driven wheels to skid when they temporarily lose traction. In such situations, engine drag torque control maintains directional stability and boosts safety. The system's control unit receives information from the wheel-speed sensors and the engine control unit or transmission control unit via the CAN data bus. If it detects wheel slip, it sends a signal to the engine control unit to increase engine torque, until the driven wheels are turning at a rate appropriate to the car's speed. This keeps your car steerable and maintains directional stability.
The more you push on the accelerator the more you increase the fuel/air mixture to the engine which will cause the engine to turn more RPMs, thus propelling the vehicle at a faster speed.
There can be several causes that the engine will die when you press on the break of your 1994 Chevrolet Caprice. The most prevalent cause is restricted fuel flow. The engine can get enough gas to run when the accelerator is depressed but not enough fuel when you apply the brake.
An accelerator pedal is named as such because it acts to accelerate or change the velocity of the vehicle. In most cases it causes the engine to use more fuel to act to cause a force (or something that accelerates an object) on the vehicles tires. This cause the vehicle to either speed up, or maintain a speed, or fight a deceleration.
It can.
well with any vehicle if the engine is accelerating usually its a linkage problem meaning your linkage is getting stuck somewhere check that first
