Dear sir, I just replaced my clutch pedal after a dozen clutch cables broke by the pedal. Two days after receiving my car, on starting the car, the accelerator unintentionally started accelerating repeatedly, as if someone one was pressing and depressing the pedal at the start of a race! I also noticed that my brakes do not work and the brake pedal feels solid as stone and doesn't move when this happens. This never happened whilst I was driving. Its still in the garage! It happened as soon as I started up the engine. I feel as if the accelerator pedal is stuck as it's range of movement feels now more limited than before. Please help!
