acceleration pedal

my acceleration paddle is very hard to press on, seems like its rusty or something inside that it would go in at all and when i give it more force suddenly it goes all the way in and the car accelerates like crazy. anyone know what is going on? thanks

sticky throttle?
open the hood and look at the tb. make sure its clean and easy to move by hand. make sure nothing is hitting the linkage or laying on the linkage.

my tb isn't sticky but the throttle feels like it has a click in it. mine does what he described just not as severe. i can make it accelerate if i push it down REAL slow but an average accel it can't do w/o jumpin a tad.
