Is the throttle cable in between the gas pedal and throttle body broken?
Does the check engine light remain on or flash?
If so, get the trouble codes read.
You may have a fault such as one for a faulty throttle position sensor.

Hello FRANCIS MOONGA,

I am sending you a link to an article that features written step by step instructions and pictures explaining how to scan for codes yourself. Also, I have included a link to our YouTube channel with a how to video on code scanning.

This is applicable even if your check engine light is not on.

Most scanners are inexpensive to purchase, you can purchase one online from sites like Amazon.com
