1995 buick riviera will not accelerate when the pedal is pushed. it idles fine and does not miss on any cylinders. the problem occurred once before and corrected itself without any adjustments. it is a supercharged v6 engine with 160,000 miles on it. just running down the road when the throttle quit responding. engine did not die.

Is your check engine light coming on at all?

Those lights weren't put there for Christmas decorations. You need to have the codes read and start resolving the issues.

Stop wasting our time. If you don't want to have the codes read, you can fix it yourself.

I'm sure you'll be wasting a lot more with your approach.
