----------------------------------------------------------------
I have a 2000 Durango, here recently it seems the accelerater is sticking. The Rpms stay revved up making it difficult to stop. I have already changed the Idle control sensor and the throtle body positioning sensor and it still does it. I had a mechanic tell me it could be a vacuum line, because while it sticks you can watch the rpm gauge sort of bounce, causing the truck to speed up and slow down. I really need to know what the problem is so I can drive my kids around again.

I would start by checking for vacuum leaks
check the intake gasket
you must have check engine light on
and if so get the codes
