Consumer Description

THROTTLE BODY STOPS TO ONLY IDLE UPON ACCELERATING OR USE OF THROTTLE FROM STOP. SOMETIMES IT WILL ALLOW TO ACCELERATE UP TO 30 TO 40 MPH BEFORE IT QUITS WORKING UPON THROTTLE INPUT FROM DRIVER. SO, IT WILL ONLY IDLE AFTER ACCELERATING HALF OR PART WAY THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AND YOU ARE AT THE MERCY OF INCLINE OR DECLINE OF ROAD TO HOPEFULLY COAST TO SAFETY. IT HAS DONE THIS WHILE TURNING LEFT WHILE HAVING TO YIELD TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IT CAUSED ONCOMING TRAFFIC TO HAVE TO STOP WHILE I GOT STRANDED IN MIDDLE OF TURN. SAFETY ISSUE FOR SURE. *TR
