Stuck Throttle.

Its a 88 E250 3/4 ton

The only way i can release it is by pushing the metal arm that connects to the out side of the transmission.If i step on the throttle it will get stuck were ever i let off.Then i have to go under the van and move the arm to let off.Then i steped on the breaks and the break line broke.This all happend yesterday in my driveway.

Its probably the throttle body pivot arm mine was sticking on my 94 clubwagon at the time I thought it was the throttle cable. Disassemble use fine sand paper on the arm Lube with never seize and reassemble. Also Lube the tranny arm and maybe replace the c-clips that hold it together.
Good luck with the project
