spent some time on it yesterday and found the throttle linkage to be seized up. I sprayed it down with WD40 to see if I could get the parts moving, but it looks like I will need to take it apart and polish each piece. The gas pedal seems to not function correctly. Not sure if it's just because of the linkage...or maybe the PO kept trying to press it with the linkage stuck causing something to get bent.
